A sentence from the passage that best supports Luka’s inference is “But it was mostly beer that was doing the talking”. That sentence shows how Beowulf often uses diplomacy instead of rushing to anger and aggression.

EXPLANATION

The passage above illustrates a relaxed talking situation between Beowulf and Unferth. Unferth has told a lot about his views on Breca and Beowulf, but Beowulf considers that all these views were ejected because they drink beer, so the conversation became more loose-lipped. The sentence "But it was mostly beer that was doing the talking" shows a diplomatic sentence, a beautiful sentence using the language style: personification. This sentence supports Luka's inference that "Even though he's a warrior, Beowulf often uses diplomacy instead of rushing to anger and aggression."

The story of Beowulf  

The story focuses on how the character Beowulf, as a hero of the Geats, comes to help the king of the Danes, Hrothgar. The king of the Danes' great hall is plagued by Grendel who is considered as a monster. Thus, Beowulf comes to help to defeat Grendel by killing him with his bare hands. Not only does he kill Grendel, but Beowulf also kills Grendel’s mother with a giant’s sword. After that, Beowulf becomes the king of the Geats.
