C the narrator traveled with the artillery man
The correct answer is B. Loud, shrill
Explanation:
In the excerpt presented, the word "piercing" is used to describe the voice of Athena. In this, it explained her voice "stopped all fighters cold", this suggests her voice had a great impact, and therefore her voice can be described as loud or strident. According to this, the word "piercing" means "loud" or "shrill" because only a loud and shrill voice will have the effect of stopping fighters. Also, the powerful voice of Athena cannot be defined through other words such a soft or hushed.
Dramatic Irony!
We as the audience know that Juliet has taken the potion (therefore asleep) and not “life-like” regardless of the fact she kills herself later.
However, Romeo does not know she has taken the potion and is NOT dead.
