Read the following passage: “I gazed at these marvels in profound silence. Words were utterly wanting to indicate the sensations

The correct word is “gazed”. The verb gaze is used to describe the action of looking / staring at something for a long period of time – be it because that something being watched is impressive or simply because the watcher is distracted and pensive.  In the passage, the word gaze does NOT impact the mood.

What really impacts the mood in the passage are the other words – marvels, profound, wonder, mysterious, spectacle and phenomena – since their meaning convey an idea of something unnatural, exciting and incredible happening before the eyes of the narrator.

The passage was taken from the book <em>A Journey to the Centre of the Earth</em> by Julio Verne. The narrator is struggling to describe his sensations when he finds a gigantic cavern and the Central Sea below the surface of the Earth.

Explanation:Answer:

The repetition in the given sentences explains that why Gilgamesh has not yet reached his destination.

Explanation:

It also emphasises the challenges of a long journey. Both these sentences apply to the significance of the repetition of the passage and the sentences. The journey is very long and thus there are many challenges which are faced by Gilgamesh in reaching his destination. He is overcoming those challenges and putting his effort in covering the journey but it is taking time.
