English

Answer:

Capitalize proper nouns—and adjectives derived from proper nouns.

Examples:

the Golden Gate Bridge

the Grand Canyon

a Russian song

a Shakespearean sonnet

a Freudian slip

With the passage of time, some words originally derived from proper nouns have taken on a life, and authority, of their own and no longer require capitalization.

Examples:

herculean (from the mythological hero Hercules)

quixotic (from the hero of the classic novel Don Quixote)

draconian (from ancient-Athenian lawgiver Draco)

The main function of capitals is to focus attention on particular elements within any group of people, places, or things. We can speak of a lake in the middle of the country, or we can be more specific and say Lake Michigan, which distinguishes it from every other lake on earth.

Read this sentence from "The Final Assault."
boyakko [2]

Answer: I believe it would be letter (b)

Explanation: I had to answer this question yesterday and I am pretty sure this is the answer. Because it asks ¨the narrator gives an example of why oxygen is vital to climbers on Mt. Everest. How does the narrator develop this concept in the rest of the narrative?¨ so this is really the only plausible answer regarding the question.
