Answer:

A:Pocahontas saw a man with yellow hair — walking through the forest — a sight she had never seen before so she followed him.

Explanation:

A non essential phrase is a phrase that can be removed from a sentence without changing the meaning of the sentence. Non essential phrases usually give unimportant information and details that one can easily do without. Commas are usually used to set off non essential phrases. 

In the sentence given above, the non essential phrase in the sentence is 'A sight she had never seen before'.  If this phrase is removed from the sentence, the idea in the sentence will still remain the same and the sentence will read: 'Pocahontas saw a man will yellow hair walking through the forest so she followed him. 

There is also essential phrase; if an essential phrase is removed from a sentence, the main idea of the sentence will change.

I think the best answer for this question would be "D" because the Ancient Greece population was the kindest of them all so they had to show some respect to the doctors, nurses, and the workers in the hospital.
Also, "A" wouldn't be correct because the Greek gods and goddesses weren't strangers, they were respected people in there tribe.
Furthermore, "B" wouldn't be right because in the time of the Greek times, there was wars all over the empire surrounded by the wars from other empires too.
And lastly, "C" obviously can't be right because there weren't even so good bathrooms in the time, so I believe there just couldn't be any inns at their times. I mean c'mon, this was the time before Jesus was born! Lol!
The three wrong answers I chose wrong didn't even include anything about hospitality so "D" is definitely right!
