Haven't read the book but this may be helpful to you:
"<span>In The History of the Kings of Britain, Geoffrey of Monmouth proposes to set forth the history of the British kings starting with Brutus and ending with Cadwallo. Geoffrey undertakes this endeavor at the request of the Archdeacon of Oxford who presents Geoffry with an ancient text to translate from British into Latin. The history of the British kings shows how fortune, jealousy, and betrayal can lead to the demise of an entire nation. On the other hand the text also details the qualities that are necessary in a good ruler who unites his people in peace. While Geoffrey's account reads like a novel, the basis for the book is historical and gives the reader a generalized view of British history."

I'm not sure if there were specific answer choices but using complex words actually makes your statement rather unclear, especially assuming they are words the average person wouldn't know or understand.

Answer:
<em>There are many “Tom Smiths” in the Manhattan phone book.</em>
Explanation:
Although using plural for proper nouns may seem strange since it's not common in everyday speech, there is an established set of rules that deals with it. When we talk about two-word personal proper nouns, the most important rules are as follows:
- only the second word is used to make plural form
- in most cases adding "s" is the correct way
- if proper nouns end with "s" or "z" then we need to add "es" to make proper plural form (one Patty Mills, three Patty Millses)
So, with this in mind, the correct answer would be adding "s" on the second word (Tom Smiths)
