A
Not correct. She could have been using references to anything. Not all her references are from literature. Southern Bitter Wormwood is a reference to the wormwood plant which is medicinal in nature and it is very bitter.
C
Maybe. But there's a better answer. It's not her personality we are drawn to although it is quite bubbly if this passage is any kind of indication. It is the joy she takes in recognizing that Beowulf likes a good drink and he wanted her to join him and she was delighted by the invitation.
D
She could have been talking about anything that engaged her. It just happened to be mostly about the classics.
B
This is the best answer. C and D are close, but it really is B that we are attracted to. We have our eyes opened to the grand people in books. More than that we feel her joy in Beowulf, her polite tea conversation with Oliver Twist, her astonishing acceptance of the meaning of Sydney Carton's statement at the end of a Tale of Two Cities.
Chryses is a Trojan - Apollos priest. Chryses went to Agamemnon because his daughter Chryseis had been taken as plunder by Agamemnon in an earlier raid and he wanted to get her freedom by offering a ransom.
Answer:
Chris is very stubborn, he believes that he can do everything by himself. He is very hardworking, doing his best always, and he doesn’t react well to critics or any kind of authority.
Explanation:
That is why he refuses advice that Gelien wanted to give him, that wanted to buy him better equipment for his trip to Alaska. He is afraid to accept any advice because he feels that those pieces of advice could stop him from going where he intended to go.
