<span>He is an epic hero because he is a brave leader. I would say that this is the most likely description of Hector because he had the courage to go amongst the Trojans and quell their unrest by a motion with his spear and get their attention.</span>

Based on this passage, I believe that the description which best characterizes Hector is the last option - he is an epic hero because he is a brave leader.
You can see in the excerpt that once he started walking around his men, they all stopped talking and calmed down, as if they admired him a lot, which was the truth. He was a good leader and his men loved him, and were devastated when he was killed in the end.

sedaris uses both understatement and hyperbole in this essay. Identify two examples of each and explain the effect
Korvikt [17]
The hyperbole “the size of tombstones”. The author uses the hyperbole to define the extent of Anna's teeth. It’s clear the character does not have teeth in her mouth as big as tombstones or else the character would not be eager to speak. The effect of wit is shaped through Sedaris's use of the hyperbole. Also, it makes an improved description of the scene so that the person who reads can make a better visual.   
The hyperbole "Every day spent with you is like having a cesarean section."The result is this is where David Sedaris for the primary time meanwhile being in France he could comprehend every word that anybody was saying.
