The correct answer here is figuratist audience. The figuratist is a person who is a critical thinker and uses language in innovative and often witty and colorful way. That is why this kind of play would appeal to this kind of audience who enjoys word games and double meanings which induce many comical elements. The comical effect is often the result of a misunderstanding produced by the double meanings. The opposite of a figuratist is a literalist who views everything literally.

Read the passage.
Anton [14]

In this passage from Morte d’Arthur by Sir Thomas Malory, the key word to understand the whole idea of the happenings is: adder, it means snake.

And if you still have doubts about the general idea of the passage and think that the first three options: “King Arthur attempts to slay, or kill, Sir Mordred”. “Sir Mordred fatally wounds King Arthur”.” King Arthur and Sir Mordred are expressing their distrust of each other.”  Can be correct, read this sentence:

“and so rode to his party, and Sir Mordred in likewise.”

None of the first three options can be posible if the two of the knights go together to a party afterwards.

The right answer is:

A knight kills a snake with his sword.
