Answer:
The statement about epic heroes that is most frequently true is:
D. Heroes tend to be based on archetypes.
Explanation:
<u>In literature, archetypes refer to certain typical symbols - a character, an action, a situation - that reflect universal patterns of human nature. In epic poems, we find the archetype of the hero. Gilgamesh, Achilles, Beowulf, and Odysseus, for instance, are all examples of the archetype of the epic hero. These characters represent admirable qualities every human being wishes to possess: bravery, honor, strength, pride, fairness, intelligence, beauty, skills, and so on. </u>The epic hero is often the savior of a nation, sometimes defeating other human beings but, most of the time, fighting and killing monsters. He usually has some type of connection with the gods. His reputation precedes and outlasts him.
The answer is B. Although it may seem the other answers are correct as well, in fact they are not. A 'complex paragraph' is indeed one which explains multiple sides of an issue, but favors one, thus only one main topic is represented. It doesn't really matter where the topic sentence is placed - it can be anywhere in the paragraph. However, it is traditionally placed in the first sentence, although that rule isn't written in stone - the topic sentence can also be placed at the end of the paragraph. Therefore, we are left with only one option, and that is B, 'a paragraph should have one main topic'.
