Beowulf, prince of Geats, reflects the characteristics of a true hero. Through his two phases of life- young and age, poem exemplifies his heroism.

In his youth, he was characterized as courageous and full of strength. He embodied perfect characteristics of Germanic heroic code. He establishes himself as a hero when he purges Denmark of its plague.

In the second phase, Beowulf conforms himself as both king and the warrior. He is able to defeat three frightful monsters. Therefore, for the sake of his ideals, he was willing to stake his life and saved people from evil or those who were in great need.

<em>"Fearful in spirit, faint-mooded waxed he, Not off could betake him; death he was pondering" </em>

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer: The right answer is the A) Brutus asks Lucius if he cried out during his sleep to check if he imagined the ghost of Caesar.

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that this scene takes place almost at the end of Act IV. Lucius is playing the lute and singing for Brutus, and he falls asleep. Then the ghost of Caesar enters and announces Brutus that he will see him again in Philippi. When the ghost exits, Brutus asks Lucius to wake up, and he asks him if he cried out because he was dreaming, and if he saw anything, but Lucius says that he didn't, so he sends him back to sleep. Therefore, Brutus was just trying to check if he had imagined his vision or if it had been real.

Read the following student perspective and then choose your answer.
Anit [1.1K]

The closest approach is that <u>the student is qualifying the author's claim</u>. <em>Because it simplifies the author's argument with the example of cable TV channels and makes it clear that television affects Americans' lives when it comes to politics</em>. It is enough to see the number of networks devoted to political updates. <em>The student collaborated with new elements like a real example for reflection to prove the author's point of view.</em>
