Answer:
D. Childish arrogance and overconfidence can lead to trouble or death.
Explanation:
The myth of Daedalus and his son Icarus is one of the most known Greek myths. It tells the story of how, in order to escape from Crete, Daedalus made wings from feathers and wax for himself and Icarus, telling him not to get close to the water and sun. But Icarus didn't follow his father's instructions and got too close to the sun. The heat melted the wax in his wings, and he fell into the sea and drowned. That's the origin of the idiom <em>Don't fly too close to the sun</em>, meaning <em>Don't be reckless.</em>
The myth shows us that the consequences of arrogance and overconfidence can be as severe as death. Young, inexperienced Icarus ignored his father's wise words, dared to get too close to the sun and had to face the consequences.
