Explanation:

In the passage from "Everyman", the characters are named Beauty, Good - Deeds, Strength, and Discretion. Each character's dialogue shows their willingness to help Everyman on his pilgrimage, so the concepts the characters represent are related to their names: beauty, good deeds, strength, and discretion. The other options either include concepts not represented by the characters (like help, comfort, togetherness in the first option; readiness, advice, belief in the third; and pilgrimages, voyages, journeys which are actions not character - represented concepts in the fourth) or misidentify the represented concepts.

Answer:

B. beauty, good deeds, strength, and discretion
