Answer:
A. Both narrators describe gazing upon a hideous being.
B. Frankenstein believes his monster to be even more gruesome looking than the creatures Dante faced in hell.
Explanation:
Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein" revolves around a young scientist's desire to achieve knowledge beyond human limits, creating a monster. This act made him parallel to a god, capable of giving life to a being.
Dante Alighieri's "The Divine Comedy" focuses on the 'journey' of the writer (supposedly) into the afterworld. The narrative takes us along as Dante embarks on a 'tour' of the three realms of the dead.
In these two excerpts given in the question, we see Victor and Dante commenting on the respective monsters they encountered. While Frankenstein describes his monster as <em>"a thing such as even Dante could not have conceived"</em>, Dante's Minos is full of <em>"ghastly features".</em>
Thus, the correct answers are options A and B.

There were multiple reasons the War of 1812 happened, one of them being that Britain and France were battling, which caused Britain to restrict French trade from the United States, which didn't make Americans happy. Another reason was the United Kingdom didn't want the United States to expand and become powerful, as they may be deemed as a threat, so they supported Natives in keeping their land so Americans couldn't expand. The last reason I know of, was Britain would capture some of our troops and force them to join their army. These things lead to the War of 1812, which was followed by peace between the United Kingdom and the United States.
I believe the answer is: B. because his scientific endeavours in electricity were noteworthy.
King Louis was only in his early twenty's at that time. Because of many of Franklin's work in electricity field, he became very popular in French and King Louis wanted to meet him in order to discuss the application of electricity in French, and even willing to pay Franklin with a huge amount of money for it.
