Question 9 • Quiz

Which detail from Gilgamesh: A New English Version best illustrates a challenging journey?

Answer
A
The two men can hear the roar of Humbaba as they get to the Cedar Forest.
B
Gilgamesh makes an offering to the mountain and asks for a favorable dream.
C
Gilgamesh dreams that an enormous mountain falls on him and Enkidu.
D
The two men travel a thousand miles at a time before they stop for the night.

Explanation

The detail that Gilgamesh and Enkidu travel a thousand miles at a time before stopping for the night most directly shows the difficulty and length of their journey. The other choices describe an offering, hearing Humbaba, or a dream, rather than the demanding travel itself.
