TENACITY
WoW#24 Day 3
Write out an example of something that is tenacity & a non­example
of something that is tenacity.
DO NOT USE THE WORD IN THE EXAMPLES
Both the example and non­example should be designed to present
situations that have similar features and require your thinking that zeros
in on the meaning of the word pungent.
Example
In Homer's Odyssey, Odysseus is
determined to get home no matter
what. He travels to the
Underworld, fights monsters, and
slays suitors in order to make it
home safely and claim what is
rightly his.
Non­example
Odysseus's men drop their oars
when they see the bubbling waters
of Charybdis. Instead of
expressing their determination,
they are crippled with fear.
