Answer:
A. Both narrators describe gazing upon a hideous being.
B. Frankenstein believes his monster to be even more gruesome looking than the creatures Dante faced in hell.
Explanation:
Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein" revolves around a young scientist's desire to achieve knowledge beyond human limits, creating a monster. This act made him parallel to a god, capable of giving life to a being.
Dante Alighieri's "The Divine Comedy" focuses on the 'journey' of the writer (supposedly) into the afterworld. The narrative takes us along as Dante embarks on a 'tour' of the three realms of the dead.
In these two excerpts given in the question, we see Victor and Dante commenting on the respective monsters they encountered. While Frankenstein describes his monster as <em>"a thing such as even Dante could not have conceived"</em>, Dante's Minos is full of <em>"ghastly features".</em>
Thus, the correct answers are options A and B.
The correct answers are number 1) they wanted control over natural resources, and 3) gaining command of oil supplies was important.
<em>Both, the Axis and the Allied powers wanted to control North Africa because they wanted control over natural resources, and gaining command of oil supplies was important.</em>
North Africa became a key region during World War II for a simple reason. Both, the Allied forces and the Axis powers wanted to control the Suex Canal for transportation purposes. It was a strategic point for accessing the oil in the Middle East. Modern armies required oil for the maintenance of the machines and vehicles, that is why oil from the Middle East was so important. So both, the Axis and the Allied powers wanted to control North Africa because they wanted control over natural resources, and gaining command of oil supplies was important.

All of the above!
Explanation:
Evidence of Stone Age cultures dating back 100,000 years has been found, and it is thought that the San people, now living mostly in the Kalahari Desert, are the descendants of Zimbabwe's original inhabitants. The remains of iron working cultures that date back to AD 300 have been discovered. Little is known of the early iron workers, but it is believed that they were farmers, herdsmen, and hunters who lived in small groups. They put pressure on the San by gradually taking over the land. With the arrival of the Bantu-speaking Shona from the north between the 10th and 11th centuries AD , the San were driven out or killed, and the early iron workers were incorporated into the invading groups. The Shona gradually developed gold and ivory trade with the coast, and by the mid-15th century had established a strong empire, with its capital at the ancient city of Zimbabwe. This empire, known as Munhumutapa, split by the end of the century, the southern part becoming the Urozwi Empire, which flourished for two centuries.
