Passage 1 Daniel Boone is an important figure in America's westward movement. He was born in Pennsylvania in 1735. Boone liked to explore the
woods when he was a boy. He moved to North Carolina when he was thirteen. As he got older, he felt more and more at home in the forest. As an
adult in the 1760s and '70s, Boone helped create the Wilderness Road. This was a trail leading across the Appalachian Mountains, from Virginia to
Kentucky. Over 200,000 people used the road before 1850.
Passage 2
In the early 1800s, farmers in Wisconsin, Michigan, Indiana, and Illinois needed a way to get their crops to the markets on the East Coast.
The farmers used wagons to get their crops to Lake Erie. From there, the crops had a long, difficult trip north through the St. Lawrence River or east
over the Appalachian Mountains to New York City. The Governor of New York decided to build a canal to shorten the trip. A canal is a man-made
river that allows boats to travel in either direction. The Erie Canal was finished in 1825. It led from Lake Erie to the Hudson River. Farmers could load
their crops onto boats in Lake Erie. There, the boat would travel on the canal to the Hudson River, and then south on the river to New York City.

not sure but i think it’s the snug nest

intelligent is the best word to describe ivan markovitch.

throughout the ancient epic of gilgamesh, the protagonist, gilgamesh of course, exhibited many character traits that made him a true epic hero. one great trait that gilgamesh acquires of an epic hero is that he's a courageous and confident leader. in the text enkidu is too afraid to fight, but he's positive that gilgamesh has the ability to triumph against humbaba. gilgamesh tells enkidu to not be afraid and then continues on to remind him of all the victories he's had against similar foe. gilgamesh proves that he's confident by encouraging enkidu and shows he's courageous when enkidu ask gilgamesh to battle humbaba alone because he knows that gilgamesh will reign victorious.

another characteristic that makes gilgamesh an epic hero is that he's brave and takes risks. "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 felt his courage return. they charged at humbaba like two wild bulls." when reading the first part of the quote you see that gilgamesh is terrified of humbaba, and realizing that humbaba is the antagonist he's about to battle is taking a big risk. gilgamesh soon shows how brave he is by not letting his fear of humbaba overtake him, instead he went charging into the face of fear and triumphs.

im not sure if its a or b but i think its b because of the past tense
