Answer:
ОА. Some people think that the idea for the circus came from ancient times.
Explanation:
Based on the given excerpt from the article <em>The American Circus in All Its Glory</em>, it is safe to say that the writers, Joseph Bottum and Justin L. Blessinger retrace the history of how circuses came to be especially in the American context. This article delves deep into the how and why of circuses and how it has developed over the years and formed itself into the American culture.
The phrase<em> "popular myth typically traces the modern circus back to the ancient Romans"</em> <u>implies that the popular belief of people about the circus was that it originated from ancient times, more specifically the Romans</u>. But as we will read in the latter part of the article, this is not so. In fact, circuses and the very image of what we now picture as a circus is only a recent thing.
Thus, the correct answer is option A.
Answer: <u>Eponymic</u>.
Explanation:
An eponym is a person after whom a discovery or place is named, or assumed to be named. In other words, it is a name or a noun which is formed after a person. New inventions are often connected to those who found them. The adjectives derived from eponym are eponymous and eponymic. As eponyms are based on proper nouns, they often begin with capital letters.
