Question

read the point and the chart below.
point: gilgamesh has the bravery and strength to triumph in battle.
quoted evidence: he yelled, he lifted / his massive axe, he swung it, it tore / into humbabas neck, the blood / shot out, again the axe bit flesh / and bone, the monster staggered, his eyes / rolled, and at the axes third stroke / he toppled like a cedar and crashed to the ground.
paraphrased evidence:

which statement best completes the blank in this chart?
○ gilgamesh yells, lifts his massive axe, and swings it aggressively at humbabas neck three times.
○ humbaba suffers great blood loss before staggering and toppling to the ground like a cedar tree.
○ gilgamesh fiercely attacks humbaba repeatedly with his axe until the monster topples and crashes to the ground.
○ humbaba is severely injured by the attack, as evidenced by the fact that the axe cut through flesh and bone.

Explanation:

The goal is to paraphrase the quoted evidence while keeping the focus on Gilgamesh's actions (to support the point about his bravery/strength in battle). The correct option restates the core action of Gilgamesh repeatedly attacking Humbaba with his axe until the monster falls, matching the original quoted details concisely without shifting focus to Humbaba's experience alone.

Answer:

Gilgamesh fiercely attacks Humbaba repeatedly with his axe until the monster topples and crashes to the ground.
