This question is incomplete, here´s the complete question.  

Read the passage from Beowulf. "They marched in step, hurrying on till the timbered hall rose before them, radiant with gold. Nobody on earth knew of another building like it. Majesty lodged there, its light shone over many lands."

Which feature of Old English poetry did this modern translation maintain?

alliteration

full lines

rhyme

short pauses

Answer: alliteration

Explanation:

Alliteration refers to the presence of the same letter or sound, at the beginning of either adjacent or words that are near to each other.

Alliteration used to be the main required structure in Old English poetry.

In this case, alliteration is used in the "till the timbered" line, because all adjacent words start with the letter 't'.

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

A. Pangeans are historically untrustworthy.

Explanation:

The speaker's point of view is most likely that Pangeans are historically untrustworthy. At the beginning of the passage, he states that Pangea has long yearned to possess their resources. That's why he thinks they're likely to attack. Based on the following statements, we can conclude that Pangeans already tried defeating them. He doesn't explicitly state that it was them who attacked (<em>We have never been defeated before </em>- he doesn't say by whom), but based on the context, we can make this conclusion.

The speaker says that his people will defend what is theirs, which means that they will respond to violence by violence. To him, war isn't the last resort for resolving conflict.

Democratic principles are something he obviously treasures (<em>what makes us fair-minded and  democratic is our strong national character</em>), and he never says anything about suspending them during wartime.

This is why option A is the correct one.

Actual people cannot be considered valid sources for research.<br><br> True or False
umka21 [38]
True and false. It all depends on what you are researching. If it involves them, such as how many times they eat daily, the statement is false, but if it is looking for data on the fish population, the statement would be true. Therefore, this is false because people can be used.
