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.

C: Nelda goes to the river, enjoys some quiet reflection, and then returns home.
Explanation:
"Nelda's Adieu" is a short piece of text about a young girl named Nelda who is about to leave her home town and home state because of her parent's employment relocation.
She goes to the river bank which runs through her hometown. She has very good memories of this place. She recalls her grandmother, picnics there, swimming challenges with her friend Tracy, thinks about what her future in new state has in store for her, and then returns home.
The correct answer is: Option C. To persuade readers that women deserve the right to vote.
The author begins their statement by introducing a man's point of view in a scenario where women are allowed to vote, and how that would alter their ego and social behaviour. This is done as a means to present a reason for men not to take a policy like that so lightly. The author then, with the final phrase "Let the majority rule", clearly invites the readers to have their voices heard about the matter, expecting these to be raised on favor of women.
The central idea is the same as the main idea. Most of the time, the main idea is mentioned in the Title. Without reading the essay, I do not know what the central/main idea is.
