7 0

Answer:

B.He wants to become famous for his battlefield accomplishments so that his name will be remembered forever

Explanation:

Achilles who was the greatest warrior of his time chose to join King Agamemnon and his allies in the battle of Troy, not because of revenge or because of his obedience to the King, but because of his quest for glory and fame.

When Achilles was nine years old, it was prophesied that he would die in battle as a hero against the Trojans, and even though his mother did her best to avert this prophecy, Achilles chose to go for glory, even though he knew it would cost him his life.

Question...

The best choice is option C. A conceit is an "extended metaphor" - meaning it is drawn out or lengthy, possibly even explored throughout the entire poem. Another characteristic of a conceit is that it is often a surprising unexpected comparison - for example, comparing two things that are not at all related - which may help the author of the poem to more effectively grab the reader's attention.

<span>An example of a conceit in poetry includes Shakespeare’s well-known sonnet, Sonnet 18, which begins “Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?” Throughout the poem, the subject (the person the narrator is talking about) is compared to a summer's day, making this an extended metaphor.</span>
