Answer:
C. The theme that trying too hard or aiming to high can cause one to fail.
Explanation:
Ovid's story of Daedalus and Icarus tells the mythical tale of an imprisoned Daedalus making wings with wax and using it to escape from the island that he and his son were kept in. Meanwhile, Pieter Bruegel's oil painting "Landscape with the Fall of Icarus" presents an image of the fall of Icarus with only his legs visible above the water while he fell from the sky, plunging head first.
In the painting, though the character of Daedalus isn't visible, the theme of trying too hard which led to the disastrous drowning is perfectly shown through the fall of Icarus. This <u>theme of aiming too high or getting greedy from the myth seems to be the common element that Bruegel retain in his painting.</u>
The theme is that ethnocentric hurdles are a problem Americans faced not only in the past, but still face today. Clifton and Dondre are not allowed to participate in major events with their peers due to the ethnocentric hurdles placed in front of them. For Clifton, this was not being allowed to go to an amusement park on his school trip. For Dondre, this was not being allowed to play in a golf tournament at a golf club that did not allow African Americans. Dondre and Clifton bonded over their shared experiences, and they and their classmates and teammates will be eternally bonded in their efforts to overcome the struggle of inequities that still rear up as the hideous face of hatred and discrimination.

Answer:
b. Suspense.
Explanation:
The lines are from the epic "Beowulf" which tells of the heroic deeds of the protagonist and hero Beowulf.
Taken from Chapter 23, the lines refer to when the Geats saw the water filled with blood. They did not know that their leader had vanquished and beheaded Grendel and his mother. Rather, they were of the opinion that Beowulf had been killed by the monsters. This is a theme of suspense for the soldiers who are waiting for their leader. They were sure that their master / leader had been killed. Even Hrothgar had turned his boat and sailed, while the Geats waited expectantly and patiently, hoping for Beowulf to return.
