The correct answer should be <span>a rise in the popularity of bicycles. In fact, this is the
main topic of the excerpt. Since the rise of the popularity of
bicycles in women, they become more conscious on their ways of living instead
of their clothing.</span>
I’m not sure I quite understand your question. I’d love to help you if only you could just elaborate
by explaining that the travel time in the air was about the same as by train.
<span>Grendel can be considered to be a modern-day monster primarily because there are so many human characteristics in him, and in the old days that wasn't the way in which monsters were portrayed. Here we can see that Grendel feels hatred towards the soldiers, that he is also afraid when he sees Beowulf, he isn't just a mindless monster lusting for blood, there is a reason behind him doing all the killings.
After reading this you would have got your answer :)
Hope this helps :)</span>
