Question

which statement best describes how gilgameshs dreams affect the plot of gilgamesh:
the dreams lessen any tension in the plot.
the dreams introduce the main idea.
the dreams shift the focus from gilgamesh.
the dreams create conflict and suspense.

Explanation:

In "Gilgamesh", Gilgamesh's dreams do not lessen tension (so first option is wrong). They don't introduce the main idea directly (second option is incorrect). Also, the dreams are about Gilgamesh, so they don't shift focus from him (third option is wrong). The dreams often foreshadow events, creating conflict and suspense about what will happen next, so the fourth option is correct.

Answer:

D. The dreams create conflict and suspense.
