Read the passage from the tempest, in which ariel reports to prospero all he has done on prospero’s behalf.
ariel
i boarded the king’s ship; now on the beak,
now in the waist, the deck, in every cabin,
i flamed amazement: sometime i’d divide,
and burn in many places; on the topmast,
the yards and bowsprit, would i flame distinctly,
then meet and join. jove’s lightning, the precursors
o’ th’ dreadful thunderclaps, more momentary
and sight-outrunning were not. the fire and cracks
of sulphurous roaring the most mighty neptune
seem to besiege, and make his bold waves tremble,
yea, his dread trident shake.
which response most clearly describes how ariel’s magical powers influence the setting?
a. ariel uses his magical powers to follow prospero’s requests exactly and creates a convincing illusion. the illusion of a horrific storm and a shipwreck brings the ship’s occupants onto prospero’s island so he can carry out his plan.
b. ariel’s magic is stronger than prospero’s. ariel is a powerful spirit who is able to carry out his master’s orders, but he goes too far and creates utter chaos and madness, which prospero did not want.
c. ariel uses his magical powers to prove that he is a loyal servant to prospero and that he will always do his bidding. he is powerful enough to attempt to carry out his master’s plan, but is not able to scare those aboard the king’s ship. ariel’s magic is powerful, but prospero’s is greater.
d. ariel is an impressive spirit who does everything he can to carry out his master’s orders, but prospero has to step in and create the illusion of a horrific storm to bring the ship’s occupants onto the island.
