Beowulf tells Hrothgar that he will fight Grendel with his bare hands, as Grendel doesn't fight with weapons (it seems he can't even be killed with a blade). The only help Beowulf will get is the help of his warriors. Beowulf is aware that the lives of all his warriors are at stake, and anticipates that Grendel will eat them if they fail, but he is still eager to do this. This reveals that the leader is always the first one to fight, in front of his followers. But although he vouches for their lives, they must follow him to death, if need be.
Just like Beowulf is a leader to his warriors, Hrothgar, as a king, is the spiritual leader of the realm. Beowulf yields to him and wants to fight and even die for him, as Hrothgar represents the God's will on Earth. When the realm is physically endangered by a murderous, devilish villain, it means that the God's order on Earth is symbolically endangered, and it takes a hero to restore it.

Answer:
A) Questions usually start with a helping verb or adverb.
Explanation:
The sentence structure in statements and questions is different. In the case of statements, the main elements (subject, verb and direct object) must be organized in the following way:
- Subject + Verb + Direct Object: John drives a motorcycle.
Statements can also include indirect objects, adverbs, modal and auxiliary verbs, among other elements.
On the other hand, questions are organized in two ways, depending on the type of question:
Verb + Subject + Complement:
Is she your sister?
Modal/Auxiliary verb + Subject + Verb:
Will you go to the party? Do you like it? Can you answer the phone?
WH word + Verb + Subject:
What is this? Where are you?
WH word + Modal/Auxiliary verb + Subject + Verb:
Where will she go? What are you doing? What did you do last night?
