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.

Hannah is writing an argument about free speech on the internet. Read her claim.
Serga [27]

A)The internet is one place people can speak their minds without fear.

D)It is impossible to know whether the people we entrust with the job of judging online content will act in our best interests.

These both support Hannah's claim about allowing free speech on the internet so that protection does not turn into censorship. Option A supports the idea that the internet is a place where people can speak their minds. Option D explains why giving people the task of judging online content is problematic. The other two options are in favor of allowing certain safeguards that would limit free speech on the internet. These are counterclaims that Hannah needs to address in her argument but to show why they are weak not as support for her claim.
