How does the narrative depicted in “The Epic of Gilgamesh" best fit the definition of an epic?
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

B. It is told in a serious manner using elevated language.

Explanation:

Considered to be the earliest surviving great work of literature,<em> The Epic of Gilgamesh</em> is an epic poem from ancient Mesopotamia, written around 1800 BC. The protagonist is Gilgamesh, the historical king of the Sumerian city-state of Uruk.

An epic poem is a lengthy narrative poem that celebrates the accomplishments of a legendary or traditional hero, who represents a culture's heroic ideal. The setting of an epic is large, sometimes worldwide or even larger (for example, the plot of <em>Paradise Lost</em> takes place on earth, heaven, and hell). Superhuman elements are common, and gods and other supernatural beings take interest or participate in the adventures of the hero. Epic poems are always written in elevated style. <em>The Epic of Gilgamesh</em> fits all the characteristics of this literary genre.

Based on this, we can see that statement B is the correct one. Statements C and D are not characteristics of epics. Epics do not have to originate in ancient civilizations. For example, <em>Paradise Lost</em> is an epic written in the 17th century by English poet John Milton.

Why does the author include the pictures in the “Construction” section of the “How to Manage Stormwater: Rain Barrels”?
Strike441 [17]

Anytime you include pictures, photos, and other illustrations in documents, it helps the writer show great amounts of complicated data in a way that is easy-to-understand. Using these images helps save space and the graphic elements work to visualize how complex information can be put to together in an appealing way.

In this booklet, written by the Environmental Services department of the City of Portland, there are a lot of illustrations designed to help observe the site, plan, and construct your rain barrel. The pictures in the "Construction" section specifically help you to know about:

  • the seven tools needed to build your own rain barrel
  • the five tools required to disconnect your downspout and connect it to your barrel
  • the six steps to constructing your rain barrel

The end result of these illustrations is that more citizens of Portland (and elsewhere) can properly plan for, and successfuly complete the project of making their own rain barrel. Ultimately, this will have a positive effect on the environment. Specifically, the more rain barrels are being used, sewer demand is reduced and the water quality of streams and groundwater will improve.
