Read the following passage from the Epic of Gilgamesh. Which of these statements best summarizes it?You know the city Shurrupak,

it stands on the banks of Euphrates? That city grew old and the gods that were in it were old. There was Anu, lord of the firmament, their father, and warrior Enlil their counsellor, Ninurta the helper, and Ennugi watcher over canals; and with them also was Ea. In those days the world teemed, the people multiplied, the world bellowed like a wild bull, and the great god was aroused by the clamour. Enlil heard the clamour and he said to the gods in council, 'The uproar of mankind is intolerable and sleep is no longer possible by reason of the babel.' So the gods agreed to exterminate mankind. … but Ea because of his oath warned me in a dream. … O man of Shurrupak, son of Ubara-Tutu; tear down your house and build a boat, abandon possessions and look for life, despise worldly goods and save your soul alive. Tear down your house, I say, and build a boat. These are the measurements of the barque as you shall build her: let her beam equal her length, let her deck be roofed like the vault that covers the abyss; then take up into the boat the seed of all living creatures. The Epic of Gilgamesh A.The gods are angry because the city became large and mighty, so they put everyone in a boat. B.The gods encourage men of the city of Shurrupak to destroy their neighbors for being so loud. C.The gods build a boat to escape from loud and unruly humans in the city of Shurrupak. D.The gods want to destroy humans for being so loud, but one of the gods helps the speaker escape.
