This question has the excerpt missing. Here is the excerpt:

"Hercules was the son of the great god Zeus and a human  woman named Alcmene. The goddess Hera did not like  Alcmene and vowed to destroy Hercules when he was  born. Hera sent two snakes to kill the baby as he lay in his  crib, but Hercules was strong and strangled the snakes  with his tiny hands before they could bite him with their  sharp fangs."

Answer:

The correct answer is Knowing that Hercules was born with superior strength explains why he is able to overcome great obstacles.

Explanation:

Hercules was born with great strength and uses it to kill the two snakes that Hera sent to kill him.

Hera did not want to kill Hercules because of his great strength, but because she did not like Alcmene.

This act shows Hercules strength when facing obstacles, such as saving his life when he is in great danger.

Given this information we can say that the correct answer is Knowing that Hercules was born with superior strength explains why he is able to overcome great obstacles.
