Answer: C. it emphasizes the length of Gilgamesh and Enkidu's journey

Explanation:

Gilgamesh: A New English Version is a book about Gilgamesh, written by Stephen Mitchell. The purpose of this version is to make the oldest epic poem accessible. The poem tells a story of Gilgamesh and his journey of self-discovery.

Enkidu is a friend of Gilgamesh. The Gods create him to help Gilgamesh control his arrogance. The two of them fight against the evil together and thus become very close. The repetition of this excerpt emphasizes the length of their journey - they stopped to eat after having passed four hundred miles, and pitched their camp at thousand miles.

23. What did Janie think when she found what was under Tea Cake's pillow?
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

C. I hope Tea Cake isn't going to use this against me.

Explanation:

This question refers to Zora Neale Hurston's novel "Their Eyes Were Watching God". The novel follows Janie's life, her maturation and transformation throughout years.

This particular question refers to the situation when she found a gun under her husband's pillow.

This worries her greatly, because her husband's infected with rabies, has rage deliriums and exhibits great amount of jealousy, so Janie doesn't know what to expect nor can she believe him. Just in case, she secretly turns the pistol's barrel and sets it to snap before firing a bullet, which proves she was afraid for her life.
