Answer:

D) supernatural forces, such as gods or monsters, that intervene

Explanation:

In epic poetry, the main aspect of it being an epic is the infusing of the supernatural themes or forces such as the gods or monsters into the story or poem. And the extraordinary level of strength that the characters possess, the extent of their might all contribute to it being an epic. In the given excerpt of the book of "Gilgamesh: A New English Version" by Stepghen Mitchell also employs the supernatural forces. The depiction of Lugalbanda as a god who will help in the achieving of a far greater triumph that no man had ever achieved clearly shows the feature of an epic poetry in the story.

"The whole house was constantly in a state of inundation, under the discipline of mops and brooms and scrubbing brushes; and the
Lisa [10]

The correct answer is "In this selection, the use of the word <em>inundation</em> is probably exaggerated."


In this situation, inundation is not a real inundation/flood, therefore it is not literal. It is a word used to exaggerate the fact that the housewives are constantly cleaning the house, sweeping and mopping. You can see that too in the excerpt <em>"under the discipline of mops and brooms". </em>We know the author is referring to the cleaning process and therefore, chooses to use the word <em>inundation</em> to create more depth to what he's describing.

Attendance check: What is trust? What does it mean to trust someone?
Maru [420]

Explanation:

A trust is a fiduciary relationship in which one party, known as a trustor, gives another party, the trustee, the right to hold title to property or assets for the benefit of a third party, the beneficiary. Trusts are established to provide legal protection for the trustor’s assets, to make sure those assets are distributed according to the wishes of the trustor, and to save time, reduce paperwork and, in some cases, avoid or reduce inheritance or estate taxes. In finance, a trust can also be a type of closed-end fund built as a public limited company.

If you trust someone, you believe that they are honest and sincere and will not deliberately do anything to harm you. ... Your trust in someone is your belief that they are honest and sincere and will not deliberately do anything to harm you.
