Read the following paragraph and answer the question that follows. [1] "A tiger dies and leaves a skin. [2] A man dies and leave

s a name." [3] This ancient Chinese proverb illustrates the fundamental quality of man that distinguishes him from the animals--the power to think and reason. [4] He can decide what his future will hold. In the molding and shaping of his life, man exerts an influence on all whom he encounters. [5] He has the ability to choose the type of influence he will have. [6] A tiger, unlike a man, has no control over either his environment or his destiny. [7] Though he is a majestic animal that prowls the jungle with pride and assurance, terrorizing both man and beast, his actions are governed only by the laws of nature. [8] His death leaves the world unchanged; he exerts no lasting influence. [9] When a man dies, however, he may continue to influence others through his accomplished goals and through the traits and ideas he has passed on. Which of the following generalizations is justified based on the facts given in the preceding paragraph? The author believes one person can make a difference. Tigers are a menace. Man has the ability to reason.

How does the narrative depicted in “The Epic of Gilgamesh" best fit the definition of an epic?
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

B. It is told in a serious manner using elevated language.

Explanation:

Considered to be the earliest surviving great work of literature,<em> The Epic of Gilgamesh</em> is an epic poem from ancient Mesopotamia, written around 1800 BC. The protagonist is Gilgamesh, the historical king of the Sumerian city-state of Uruk.

An epic poem is a lengthy narrative poem that celebrates the accomplishments of a legendary or traditional hero, who represents a culture's heroic ideal. The setting of an epic is large, sometimes worldwide or even larger (for example, the plot of <em>Paradise Lost</em> takes place on earth, heaven, and hell). Superhuman elements are common, and gods and other supernatural beings take interest or participate in the adventures of the hero. Epic poems are always written in elevated style. <em>The Epic of Gilgamesh</em> fits all the characteristics of this literary genre.

Based on this, we can see that statement B is the correct one. Statements C and D are not characteristics of epics. Epics do not have to originate in ancient civilizations. For example, <em>Paradise Lost</em> is an epic written in the 17th century by English poet John Milton.
