Answer:
B Sometimes people take advantage of the kindness of their friends.
Explanation:
"Lazy Anansi" is an African folktale from the state of Ghana which tells the story of how spiders came to have long, thin legs. The story also deals with a good moral of why it is bad manners to rely on or take advantage of other people's goodness.
The tale tells how Anansi, a lazy spider would depend on others for his meals, visiting one friend after another for their food. And amidst this habit, he got stuck with everyone's offer to eat with them. And thus ended up hurting his own body when they all pulled his web to let him know the food was ready. And in the process of doing so, the friends had unknowingly hurt him physically, thus leading to the thin and long legs of spiders.
Thus, the <u>main theme of the fable is that sometimes people take undue advantage of the kindness and goodness of others, like he spider Anansi.</u>

1) Both texts emphasize the strength of mortals over that of the gods.
Explanation:
Here's what the poet says: [From the story of Prometheus,]
"A mighty lesson we inherit: Thou art a symbol and a sign
To Mortals of their fate and force; Like thee, Man is in part divine,"
The sufferings inflicted by Gods or fate can seem to be unbearable. But although the flesh may be weak, the spirit can still be strong. And that's what Byron confirms in conclusion:
"To which his <u>Spirit may oppose</u> Itself—and equal to all woes,
And <u>a firm will,</u> and <u>a deep sense</u>, Which even in torture can descry
<u>Its own concenter'd recompense</u>, Triumphant where it dares defy,
And making Death a Victory."
