Answer:

The correct answer is <u>B</u>: Aunt Zeze is misunderstood and even though she loves her nieces, she experiences great personal unhappiness.

Explanation:

<em>Aunt Zeze's Tears</em> is a Brazilian short story, written by Emilia Moncoroua Bandeira de Mello.

Aunt Zeze is a young woman who got old prematurely because she dedicated all her life to her nieces. She is misunderstood by her family, they laugh at her, as she did not have a proper youth because she decided to stay with her sister and nieces, so she still dresses like a teenage girl and has her dreams and unfulfilled ambitions.

Zeze fell in love with a friend of her brother-in-law named Monjardin who writes a poem to her. While listening the poem, Zeze realizes that she is too old to fell in love and she will never find her happiness.

Characteristics of Anglo-Saxon warriors
Advocard [28]

Anglo-Saxon epic heroes, such as Beowulf, exhibit a series of attributes that separate them from the normal men and women who rely on them to liberate them from the oppression of monsters and other threats. By understanding the qualities that make Beowulf a hero, you can then better understand how other Anglo-Saxon epic heroes, such as Fadlan of "The 13th Warrior" or even the warrior Christ in "The Dream of the Rood" fit into their respective worlds.Greek heroes, like Hercules, were not merely mortals, but demigods, and the idea that a hero must be more than a man carries over into Anglo-Saxon epic poetry. Beowulf is greeted by the first Dane who sees him with an acknowledgment of his awesome presence: "I have never seen a mightier warrior on earth than is one of you, a man in battle-dress."While appearance is important, it is no empty gesture; superhuman strength is also essential to the Anglo-Saxon epic hero. In the seventh section, lines 8 to 10 of Beowulf, titled "Hrothgar and Beowulf," Hrothgar describes Beowulf as having the strength of 30 men: "Who valuable gift-gems of the Geatmen carried / As peace-offering thither, that he thirty men’s grapple / Has in his hand, the hero-in-battle.Courage, in the Anglo-Saxon tradition, works in conjunction with strength, despite the separation that exists in modern culture which sometimes commends restraint and tactical retreats. According to Christopher Garcia of Pace University, Beowulf and other epic heroes are capable of successfully challenging fate "which was thought to be unchangeable" because of adequate courage. Beowulf himself speaks to this importance of courage when arguing with Unferth. He says, ""Fate often saves an undoomed man when his courage is good."Appearance, strength and courage for the Anglo-Saxon epic hero are balanced by humility. After he has defeated both Grendel and Grendel's mother, Beowulf turns down the Danish throne, and decides to return home without treasure. He is described in the poem as "The mildest of men and the gentlest, kindest to his people, and most eager for fame." It should be noted by his eagerness for fame, however, that pride, and possibly hubris, exist in Beowulf simultaneously as his humility, and may be interpreted as a tragic flaw for his ultimate downfall.

Please give me brainliest answer, thanks, and i hope this helps out. I just finished reading Beowulf.
