The answer to this question is the second option: People's actions determine their legacy. The excerpt referred here is from <span> Gilgamesh: A New English Version which states: 
"</span>Let your heart inspire you
to be joyous in battle, to forget about death.
If we help each other and fight side by side,
we will make a lasting name for ourselves,
<span>we will stamp our fame on men's minds forever."

Based on this excerpt, the theme being presented here clearly represents that whatever your actions may be, most especially if it is inspiring, these actions will become great memories on men and will always be remembered. </span>

Exercise;-,.
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

1. These oranges are sweet, but those we bought yesterday were sour.

2. Did you see that painting which mother bought?

3. This book contains all the information you need.

4. Those birds we saw last week in the zoo were beautiful.

5. Vera bought that dress from the new mall.

6. Those kittens playing in the yard do not belong to Lara.

7. Many foreigners who come to India are fascinated by the traditions prevailing in that country.

8. That car which was launched in the market last week is very popular.

Explanation:

The demonstrative pronouns in English are four:

  • this (singular)
  • that (singular)
  • these (plural)
  • those (plural)

When referring to objects that can be seen by both the speaker and the listener:

  • "this" and "these" refer to objects near the one who speaks;
  • "that" and "those" refer to objects far from the speaker or even far from both, speaker and listener.

In the sentences we completed above, we cannot know what is near and what is far since there are no pictures. However, you will notice that some sentences use the present tense while others use the past tense. This is our clue. The ones using the past will most likely be completed with "that" or "those", because the verb is referring to actions that are "far". Likewise, sentences in the present will most likely be completed with "this" and "these" for referring to an action that is closer / nearer.
