Speaker's brave conquests are mentioned or at least cited in the following options from the excerpt:
- <em>Option 1</em>, in which he tells about his innumerable combats he had won.
- <em>Option 4 </em>also celebrates his fight with Grendel.
- In <em>Option 6</em>, the speaker is showing us how valiant his action in the field of war can be.
Therefore, I assume, from my understanding, that these are the three statements from the provided excerpt which focus on the narrators heroic accomplishments.
Im not sure what the answer is
The correct answer to this question is letter "C." The line from “cruel tribute” tat best supports the idea that ariadne’s actions help advance the plot is that "<span>c.all through that night ariadne lay awake and thought of the matchless hero, and grieved that he should be doomed to perish."</span>
Is this the excerpt you are referring to?
<span>In a smithy
one sees a white-hot axehead or an adze
plunged and wrung in a cold tub, screeching steam-
the way they make soft iron hale and hard—:
just so that eyeball hissed around the spike.
</span>
If so, the use of the epic simile in this excerpt helps the reader understand how hot the spear actually is.
