Answer:
The statement about epic heroes that is most frequently true is:
D. Heroes tend to be based on archetypes.
Explanation:
<u>In literature, archetypes refer to certain typical symbols - a character, an action, a situation - that reflect universal patterns of human nature. In epic poems, we find the archetype of the hero. Gilgamesh, Achilles, Beowulf, and Odysseus, for instance, are all examples of the archetype of the epic hero. These characters represent admirable qualities every human being wishes to possess: bravery, honor, strength, pride, fairness, intelligence, beauty, skills, and so on. </u>The epic hero is often the savior of a nation, sometimes defeating other human beings but, most of the time, fighting and killing monsters. He usually has some type of connection with the gods. His reputation precedes and outlasts him.

Explanation:
<u>What Churchill is basically saying in the passage is that England will not surrender. That the English people will keep on fighting, even if other countries are being defeated.</u> He does not talk of himself and his qualifications as a leader. He does not explain military tactics or preparations. In this passage, he does not present an argument against Germany. <u>All he does is appeal to his audience's emotions. He makes use of repetition quite efficiently to do so: "We shall". He does not say "I", or "you", it's always "we", helping create a sense of unity. He speaks of strength, of confidence, of endurance and resilience.</u> Having that in mind, the best option is letter C. pathos, because it appeal to audience's feelings of unity and patriotism.
