The author portrays Theseus as a flawed human being. In early adventures, Theseus proved that he was a 'hero' but it wasn't until he slew the minotaur he became a legend, the living embodiment of braveness. However the author also made sure to mention that he deserted Princess Ariadne and even killed her father without much thought in order to allow the reader to understand that this so called hero although brave is far from perfect.
Hope this helps!

Answer:
D.) Prioritization is the state of deciding therelative importance of one thing over others.
Explanation:
You can determine the meaning of prioritization in the sentence based on the suffix. The suffix "-tion" refers to an action or the action's result. Therefore, prioritization should refer to a verb, not a noun.
Answers B and C are incorrect because prioritization is referring to a person or place (both nouns).
While I am having a difficult time determining whether answer A is referring to a verb or noun, I can still safely say the correct choice is answer D based on the basic definition of prioritization. To prioritize means to idenitify as something more important than another; it does not directly involve recalling the past. Therefore, the best answer is D.
He wanted to convey that indifference is worse than hate or anger. One could be angry at injustice or hate evil, violent acts Indifference is the absence of compassion and implies something worse than outright hate; indifference implies a lack of acknowledgment. Being indifferent to another's suffering is like saying, 'you're suffering is not even worth my consideration.' Wiesel speaks from his experience of the Holocaust, but this could be applied to any situation in history in which the world was indifferent; in which the world willfully refused to acknowledge suffering of others for any number of unjustifiable reasons: 1) out of sight, out of mind, 2) passivity, laziness, 3) an untried feeling of hopelessness ('what could i possibly do?'), 4) selfishness. When Wiesel speaks of indifference he also means ignorance in 3 senses: 1) ignorant as in lacking sensitivity, 2) lacking knowledge and 3) ignoring. The 'perils of indifference' could be described as the 'the terrible outcomes of ignoring atrocities. Apply this to anything today, where suffering is ignored by indifferent people and governments. (i.e., Darfur, Haiti). The peril of indifference would be to allow (allow by ignoring = indifference) an atrocity like the Holocaust to occur again.
