It’s gonna be B he is confident
Answer:
c. The novel uses first-person narration to show Grendel’s perspective.
Explanation:
Unlike the epic narrative poem "Beowulf" which details the exploits and heroic deeds of Beowulf, John Gardner's novel "Grendel" tells the story from the perspective of the monster Grendel. Being labelled the enemy in the epic, this novel rewrites the story from the point of view of Grendel himself.
By using the first person narration, the author makes sure Grendel's side of the story is shown, providing a fair chance for Grendel to make his point across. And with this new approach in characterization and narration, we see a different side of the 'monster' of "Beowulf". While Beowulf's Grendel was depicted as a terrorizing monster, Gardner's Grendel is shown as more like a human, with feelings, capable of thinking and forming opinions.

<h3>What is figurative language?</h3>
Figurative language consists of employing words in a way that gives them a different meaning, one that is not literal and that depends on the context for interpretation. Let's briefly describe the figurative languages mentioned in the question:
- Alliteration - the use of the same consonant sound in the beginning of words that are subsequent to each other.
- Metaphor - the comparison of different things without using the words "as" or "like".
- Personification - the act of giving inanimate objects human qualities or behaviors.
- Simile - the comparison of different things that makes use of "as" or "like".
The only one among those figurative languages that is present in the passage from "The Great Gatsby" is personification. It is found in the line below:
- "a foghorn was groaning incessantly on the Sound"
The action of groaning cannot really be made by an object. Humans groan when they make inarticulate sounds to express despair or when they are in pain. Thus, the narrator is using personification, giving the foghorn the human ability of groaning.
The purpose of such personification is to convey the idea that the narrator is distressed. The incessant foghorn reveals the narrator's mood, his difficulty to sleep and his sensation that something bad will happen.
