The epic is a genre that exalt the courage and deeds of the hero. Achilles is an exemplification of the valour, and highly positive traits that an epic hero must have. All the adventures and deeds in the epic are told using an elevated style, option B, in order to magnify the actions of the hero, who is susceptible to external forces, the wrath or benevolence of the Gods, as we can read in "The Odyssey" and "The Illiad".

The correct answer is "elevated style".

This is because all of the other options do not belong to a true epic, and fit more with a satire. A true epic is supposed to be serious and present a great deed by the main hero or the heroes.

Read the excerpt from "A Modest Proposal."
Annette [7]

The answer is: He states that sending children to the butcher would be as simple as “roasting pigs.”

An understatement is a statement that presents something as being less relevant, less important or smaller than it actually is.

In this case, the understatement is that roasting children is just as simple as roasting pigs. Swift, the author of <em>A modest Proposal, </em>is a master of satire and the many uses that it acquires, this being one. This essay is a perfect example of his satire. In it, Swift recommends that Irish children be put to death and fed to the rich people in order to ease the latter´s big appetite and “help” the Irish alleviate their poverty by selling off their children as food.
