"For whom the bell tolls" is a line from a poem by John Donne (pronounced like "Dunn") written in the early 1600s. Hemingway used a line from the poem as the title of a novel he wrote in the 20th century.
The poem goes like this (the copyright is in the public domain):
<span>No man is an island,
Entire of itself.
Each is a piece of the continent,
A part of the main.
If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less.
As well as if a promontory were.
As well as if a manor of thine own
Or of thine friend's were.
Each man's death diminishes me,
For I am involved in mankind.
Therefore, send not to know
For whom the bell tolls,
It tolls for thee.</span>
Answer:
“Life without memory is no life at all, just as intelligence without the possibility of expression is not really intelligence. Our memory is a coherence, our reason, our feeling, even our action. Without it, we are nothing.” – Buñuel
Explanation:
In this passage from Morte d’Arthur by Sir Thomas Malory, the key word to understand the whole idea of the happenings is: adder, it means snake.
And if you still have doubts about the general idea of the passage and think that the first three options: “King Arthur attempts to slay, or kill, Sir Mordred”. “Sir Mordred fatally wounds King Arthur”.” King Arthur and Sir Mordred are expressing their distrust of each other.” Can be correct, read this sentence:
“and so rode to his party, and Sir Mordred in likewise.”
None of the first three options can be posible if the two of the knights go together to a party afterwards.
The right answer is:
A knight kills a snake with his sword.
