The similarities between myth and history is that a myth is a fake story but is telling about what could happen in real life (of course not the story but the main point of the story). And History is what actually happened in the past.
So both myth and history talk about what could happen or what happened.
I believe the answer would be the last option, "Peasants more readily accepted unpleasant facts of life, while the middle class tried to deny them." Hope this helped. <span>(◠﹏◠✿) </span>
Thought of something different to do so I could stand out since you always wanna be the unique and different character.
