Answer:
"By your great strength/ you have killed Humbaba".
Explanation:
The Epic of Gilgamesh is an epic poem written in Akkadian regarding the Sumerian historical character of Gilgamesh, King of the Sumerian city of Uruk between 2800 and 2500 BC. As per the poem, Gilgamesh is represented as an epic hero, which means that he portrays supernatural, and almost god-like qualities, as well as certain other characteristics, that make him seem almost inhuman, or better, yet, superhuman.
From the excerpt shown here, Gilgamesh displays this superhuman quality of unparalleled bravery and strength of epic heroes when he bravely, and almost singlehandedly defeats Humbaba, the great monster. This is why the first line of the answer options is the best one.
The first one is correct.
Answer:
a cucumber
Explanation:

The rest of the options are incorrect because they do not collocate with <em>as cool as</em> to express composure and serenity.
