The correct answers are: the ability to embark on a challenging journey, strength and courage.
Indeed, since there is no battle in this excerpt, that particular characteristic of the epic hero convention is not met by this passage. However, the other three are quite clear; Gilgamesh and his god friend are able to complete a thousand miles travel on foot in 3 days, which means they are strong. Gilgamesh climbs to the mountain summit, which means that he is also courageous since most people would be terrified of such height. Finally, the fact that they embark on a long journey is also one of the most important parts of Epic heroic convention since epic heroes are always supposed to face an epic, initiate quest that will test his resolve and force him to face dangers and trials which he will overcome.

( if i'm right )
1. <span>A. strength
The simile that likens his shoulders to a full sail shows the force that must be exerted to plough the field. A "globed" sail would be rounded because of the powerful winds blowing against it. Just as the wind's, resistance is transformed into something useful by moving the boat forwards; his father's exertion transforms the land into fields that grow crops of food. While ploughing the land in this way would certainly require knowledge and skill, the simile does not refer to these qualities.
2. </span><span>D. "Mapping the furrow exactly"

Reference to the father's expertise is indicated by his "mapping the furrow" and doing so "exactly."

We are referring to an excerpt of <em>“Saving the Thrift Store: A Drama</em>”, written by Lee Washington.
In the excerpt, Rosa is having a dialogue with Louis and Eddie. Rosa says “It is a shame that I am the youngest in my family, since I’d be happy to pass my old clothes to kids who wanted them”. She listens to her friends and she adds “That thrift store had a great selection of inexpensive clothes. Postponing a reopening is bad for the families that rely on that store.”
When reading those excerpts, based on the character of Rosa, the reader can infer of the author’s unstated meaning that the author wants the reader to admire Rosa’s selflessness.
