Daniel Rose · Answer 1

It should go before the second sentence in the original essay.

Explanation:

The original essay says:

Read this student essay written about Greek mythology.

1. Greek mythology, though ancient, has a long-reaching influence upon modern life. "The influence of the Olympians on everyday culture is equal to that of Shakespeare and the Bible" (Thomas 87).2. The US space program, for instance, is called Apollo, after the god who never missed a target and who ruled light. 3. Titanium, an elemental metal, is named after the Titans, who were locked far under the ground. 4. Even video games include characters such as Icarus and Kratos.

Adding the sentence in that part sets the idea that the level of influence between greek mythology and other sources is equally important and known by most population, after that we have several examples that reinforce the statement and give space to further develop.
