Answer:

out of pride.

Explanation:

In Lines 1492-1650, Beowulf fights with Grendel's mother, ultimately severing her head from the body. After beheading her, light shines in the cave uncovering the corpse of Grendel. Furious, Beowulf cuts off the head of Grendel.

On seeing the blood well springing out Danes thinks that Beowulf had lost and went back to Heorot. But the geats, kinsmen of Beowulf waits for him.

When Beowulf returns to the land, his kinsmen seeing him alive and with the head of Grendel rejoiced. The Geats went back to the hall of Heorot with the head of Grendel. The head of Grendel was so heavy that it took four men to carry his head. <u>Geats carried the heavy head of Grendel back to Heorot hall out pride, as a trophy. </u>

skad [1K]

Answer:

The Niagara movement was established in 1905. It was led by civil rights leaders such as W.E.B. Du Bois and William Monroe Trotter. Their mission was to affect political and social change for African Americans. They sought to end institutional injustices and to expand economic and educational opportunities for Black Americans. The group's efforts led to the formation of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) in 1909. Note that the language of the speech is representative of the time period in which it was delivered. Some words and phrases are no longer appropriate.

African Wild Dogs: Ultimate Predators?
Anika [276]

From the data provided in the given passage it can be concluded that-The study that shows that African Wild Dogs catch about sixteen percent of their prey and do not use teamwork in hunting is true.

According to books, papers and television shows who created an ultimate predator image of African Wild Dogs, the dogs' coordinated teamwork and their unusual endurance helped them catch about eighty percent of their prey.

But this idea was challenged when there was a study conducted in 2012 to justify the clarity of the notion.

In the study, researchers had fit a pack of wild dogs with special collars that recorded the dogs' positions and speeds. The data collected by the collars gave the researchers a window into the activities that the dogs engaged in when they weren't being watched. The outcomes were a startling contrast to how viciously known the dogs were.

The dogs never used teamwork in their hunts rather they chased their prey over short distances as opposed to long runs. So instead of eighty percent, they brought down only about sixteen percent of their prey.

So, the main idea of the passage is clarification and modification of already recorded events and bringing out the main truth about African Wild Dogs.
