As it is well known, the cause of the Trojan War was the kidnap of Helen from Sparta (historically known as 'Helen of Troy'), wife of Menelaus, brother of the great spartan general Agamemnon, by the Trojan prince Paris, whom Helen had fallen in love for. However this was actually a great excuse for Agamemnon to lead <u>the greatest greek army ever gathered</u> to siege Troy (a nation of great power and riches at the time). A siege that would last for 10 years. Under the excuse of revenge for the Trojan insults in 'stealing' Helen from his brother, he convinced the greatest generals of all state-countries in Greece to joing his cause, among them Achilles, Ajax, Odysseus (Ulysses in Latin) and indeed conquered the lesser kingdoms to submit them under his rule.
However, I do not believe that Agamemnon subjugation of the lesser kingdoms was what helped to build the greek culture, but the fact that for the first time, all nations in Greece had a common cause to fight for. So I would chose for letter C, instead of D.
ps.: I would recommend discussing with your teacher between letters B and D.
I hope it was of some help!
Answer:
14. Is Adventure; obstacles; damsels in distress.
15. is He does not think highly of women in general.
16. is The Knight committed a terrible crime.
Explanation:
Basically, the knight in "The Wife of Bath" had found a woman by a river, ("damsel in distress"), and sought to take advantage of her, because he did not believe women are of importance, or really matter, so he inevitably raped her, which is why 16. is what it is, because his action with the woman by the river, was a crime, and a terrible thing.
Hope this helped.

The main character's point of view and the way he is said to relate to what is around him, through his preferences, his perceptions, his senses, bring to the story a more intimate view of this character. Excerpts like "I never seem able to" or "my ability" show strengths and weaknesses of the character. His strength was to be a good listener, his weakness would perhaps be his shyness or sense of inability to comment.
