The correct answer is B. These lines depict Heorot's grandeur.

In <em>Beowulf</em>, <u>Heorot is Hrothgar's mead-hall, which is the place where the warriors drink and eat.</u> This is also the hall that Beowulf defends against the monster. The hero saves Heorot from being attacked by Grendel. In this excerpt<u>, Heorot is described as a splendid grand hall ("the greatest of hall-buildings")</u>. Furthermore, its size, which is wide-reaching, is also characterized as impressive.

From the 1750s on, sugar transformed how Europeans ate. Chefs who served the wealthy began to divide meals up. Where sugar had previously been used either as a decoration (as in the wedding feast) or as a spice to flavor all courses, now it was removed from recipes for meat, fish, and vegetables and given its own place—in desserts. Dessert as the extremely sweet end to the meal was invented because so much sugar was available. But the wealthy were not the only ones whose meals were changing. Sugar became a food, a necessity, and the foundation of the diet for England's poorest workers.

It indicates that the addition of sugar was a significant change to Europeans' diets.

Answer: Option D.

<u>Explanation:</u>

In the paragraph that has been shown above, the way the Europeans ate in the 1750s and the change in their way of eating has been talked about. It shows that there has been addition of sugar in their diet.

Earlier sugar was only used as a way of decoration or as a spice to flavor up all the courses. But later the intake of sugar increased a lot in the diet of the Europeans and it became a necessity, it became a food.
