Read the excerpt from Gilgamesh: A New English Version. Gilgamesh felt his courage return. They charged at Humbaba like two wild

bulls. The monster let out a deafening cry, his roar boomed forth like a blast of thunder, he stamped and the ground burst open, his steps split the mountains of Lebanon, the clouds turned black, a sulfurous fog descended on them and made their eyes ache. Then Shamash threw strong winds at Humbaba, the south wind, the north wind, the east and the west, storm wind, gale wind, hurricane, tornado, to pin him down and paralyze his steps. He could not move forward, could not retreat. Gilgamesh saw it, he leaped upon him, he held a knife to Humbaba’s throat. What is the best conclusion that can be drawn about Gilgamesh’s character from this excerpt? He prides himself on his triumphs in battle. He believes in the power of teamwork. He relies on supernatural forces to save him. He demonstrates bravery and takes risks.

We may take the winds helping out Gilgamesh's as his "teammates". However, these winds did not come naturally but were thrown in at Humbaba, which sounds like some sort of supernatural control of weather of which Gilgamesh takes advantage to defeat his foe. We can state that Gilgamesh relies on supernatural forces because he leaped upon Humbaba as he saw him pinned down to ground by the action of winds.

Which excerpts from Two Kinds are examples of internal conflict?
rewona [7]

The excerpts from "Two Kinds" which are examples of internal conflict are:

"before going to bed that night, i looked in the mirror above the bathroom sink and when i saw only my face staring back—and that it would always be this ordinary face—i began to cry. Such a sad, ugly girl! I made high-pitched noises like a crazed animal, trying to scratch out the face in the mirror."

"so maybe i never really gave myself a fair chance. I did pick up the basics pretty quickly, and i might have become a good pianist at that young age. But i was so determined not to try, not to be anybody different that i learned to play”

The story “Two Kinds” reflects on the relation of a mother and her daughter who had been brought up in different cultures. Suyuan, Jing-mei's mother wanted her to become child prodigy of America. Suyuan tests her daughter in different activities restlessly. She gives Jing-mei piano lessons too. Jing-mei too tries hard but fails. She becomes upset as she will be the reason for her mother's disappointment. Later, Jing-mei wants everyone and her mother to accept her as she. Her mother was not ready to accept her as she is in reality. There arises many cases in which the characters undergoes conflict with other characters and with themselves as well.

What major assumption underlying the first sentence in the declaration of independence
Molodets [167]

The major assumption in the first sentence in the Declaration of Independence was the "all men were created equal".

This obviously wasn't the case because slavery was still in full swing; therefore, what was meant by it is that all WHITE men were created equal.
