Question

which detail from gilgamesh: a new english version best illustrates a challenging journey?
○ the two men travel a thousand miles at a time before they stop for the night.
○ gilgamesh makes an offering to the mountain and asks for a favorable dream.
○ gilgamesh dreams that an enormous mountain falls on him and enkidu.
○ the two men can hear the roar of humbaba as they get to the cedar forest.

Explanation:

Traveling a thousand miles in one stretch before resting directly shows the long, arduous nature of the journey, which exemplifies a challenging journey. The other options focus on dreams or pre-journey/near-destination moments that do not directly illustrate the journey's difficulty as clearly.

Answer:

The two men travel a thousand miles at a time before they stop for the night.
