Read the passage from "By the Waters of Babylon.” That is all of my story, for then I knew he was a man—I knew then that they ha

d been men, neither gods nor demons. It is a great knowledge, hard to tell and believe. They were men—they went a dark road, but they were men. I had no fear after that—I had no fear going home, though twice I fought off the dogs and once I was hunted for two days by the Forest People. When I saw my father again, I prayed and was purified. He touched my lips and my breast, he said, "You went away a boy. You come back a man and a priest." I said, "Father, they were men! I have been in the Place of the Gods and seen it! Now slay me, if it is the law—but still I know they were men." How does the dialogue support the theme of the passage? The dialogue supports the theme that wisdom comes from obeying one’s parents, because it shows how the narrator has followed the same path as his father. The dialogue supports the theme that only the fittest survive, because it details how the narrator avoids being killed by the Forest People. The dialogue supports the theme that knowledge is gained by taking risks, because it illustrates that the narrator makes a discovery by breaking the rules. The dialogue supports the theme that learning the truth is not always easy, because it highlights that the narrator is upset by the idea that the gods were men.

The correct answer is C  <em>The dialogue supports the theme that knowledge is gained by taking risks, because it illustrates that the narrator makes a discovery by breaking the rules. </em>

It is justified because at the end the narrator says that his knowledge is against the law, a rule, so he must died because of that but the way he says it makes the reader feel like he does not actually care because he knows the truth. So the risk of breaking the law is compensated with knowing the truth about the gods.

ch4aika [34]
The part of this excerpt from Homer’s Odyssey depicts Ulysses revealing his true identity to his faithful servants Eumaeus and Philaetius is

His ragged vest then drawn aside disclosed The sign conspicuous, and the scar exposed: Eager they view'd, with joy they stood amazed With tearful eyes o'er all their master gazed: Around his neck their longing arms they cast, His head, his shoulders, and his knees embraced; Tears followed tears; no word was in their power; In solemn silence fell the kindly shower. The king too weeps, the king too grasps their hands; And moveless, as a marble fountain, stands.
