Check all that apply. “Dread surged through Gilgamesh, terror flooded / his muscles, his heart froze, his mouth went dry, / his legs shook, his feet were rooted to the ground.” “Gilgamesh backed away. He said, / ‘How dreadful Humbaba’s face has become! / It is changing into a thousand nightmare / faces, more horrible than I can bear. / I feel haunted. I am too afraid to go on.’” “Gilgamesh felt his courage return. / They charged at Humbaba like two wild bulls.” “Gilgamesh saw it, he leaped upon him, / he held a knife to Humbaba’s throat.” “He yelled, he lifted / his massive axe, he swung it, it tore / into Humbaba’s neck”

The first and third evidence from text are the best statements that support conclusion of Gilgamesh being courageous and takes risks. In the first statement we can see from his fear that Gilgamesh took a risk coming to the cedar forest and standing in front of Humbaba, the embodiment of darkness and evil. The third statement shows that he is courageous by overcoming and confronting fear of Humbaba (in this example with the support of  a friend).

The evidence from the text supports the conclusion that Gilgamesh demonstrates courage and takes risks is:

  • "Gilgamesh felt his courage return. / They charged at Humbaba like two wild bulls."
  • "Gilgamesh saw it, he leaped upon him, / he held a knife to Humbaba's throat."

  • "He yelled, he lifted / his massive axe, he swung it, it tore / into Humbaba's neck"

These options are correct as:

  • First option as his courage returned which demonstrates courage.

  • Second option as he held a knife to Humbaba's throat shows risk taker.

  • Third Option as He yelled, he lifted also shows risk taker.

Other Options are incorrect as:

  • “Dread surged through Gilgamesh, terror flooded / his muscles, his heart froze, his mouth went dry, / his legs shook, his feet were rooted to the ground.” This Option is incorrect as Gilgamesh, terror flooded shows terror and fear not courage.

  • “Gilgamesh backed away. He said, / ‘How dreadful Humbaba’s face has become! / It is changing into a thousand nightmare / faces, more horrible than I can bear. / I feel haunted. I am too afraid to go on.’” This Option is incorrect as Gilgamesh,backed away again here shows fear.

Therefore the above three options are correct.
