Answer: D The dark lake represents the evil of Grendel's mother, thus contrasting with the goodness of the Danes.​

Explanation:

Beowulf is a warrior from Geatland who came to rescue the Danes from a monster known as Grendel who had been terrorizing the kingdom every night. Beowulf manages to kill Grendel but is then confronted by Grendel's mother who even though less powerful than her son, is a tougher opponent as she is full of revenge.

Beowulf goes underwater to fight her in a cave at the bottom of a dark lake and upon defeating her, a light shines into the cave. This was meant to imply that Grendel's mother was the evil that had been keeping the cave in darkness but now that she was defeated the light could now come in.

❖ I believe the correct answer choice is C. People are more likely to learn and practice morality when it is taught to them with kindness. (Is this the story with Ms. Jones and Roger? I read this a few months back if so)

Answer:

Popularity.

Explanation:

Appeal to popularity is logical reasoning where the belief is held based on the popularity of the issue. In other words, it is when an issue is deemed right just because most people deemed it true, thereby making the opinion decided based on the popularity.

This false logical reasoning is made when one idea is passed to be true because most people deemed it so. In the case of Amanda, her statement that <em>"most Americans prefer to shop online rather than in stores"</em> is based on an opinion and not proved. Just because lots of people agree to it, the general assumption is that it is true. This is what is understood as popular appeal fallacy.

Thus, the correct answer is popularity.
