Sample Response:Hektor and Achilleus are both warriors who show heroic qualities like power and courage. They believe in the same gods as well. However, Achilleus is driven by rage and revenge in his battle with Hektor. Achilleus refuses to negotiate or relent in his pursuit to defeat Hektor. Hektor, on the other hand, ponders his actions and accepts that his fate is sealed by the gods.

Dmitriy789 [7]
A
Not correct. She could have been using references to anything. Not all her references are from literature. Southern Bitter Wormwood is a reference to the wormwood plant which is medicinal in nature and it is very bitter. 

C
Maybe. But there's a better answer. It's not her personality we are drawn to although it is quite bubbly if this passage is any kind of indication. It is the joy she takes in recognizing that Beowulf likes a good drink and he  wanted her to join him and she was delighted by the invitation.

D
She could have been talking about anything that engaged her. It just happened to be mostly about the classics.

B
This is the best answer. C and D are close, but it really is B that we are attracted to. We have our eyes opened to the grand people in books. More than that we feel her joy in Beowulf, her polite tea conversation with Oliver Twist, her astonishing acceptance of the meaning of Sydney Carton's statement at the end of a Tale of Two Cities.

Pratap’s chief ambition was to catch fish. He managed to waste a lot of time this way, and might be seen almost any afternoon so
Thepotemich [5.8K]
I think the author's development of Pratap's character in the story in the given excerpt above would be seen through the writer's use of the character's point of view and attitude. It can be clearly seen that Pratap didn't like people that much and preferred a taciturn companion with the hobby he had which is fishing.
