Often, for undaunted courage, fate spares the man it has not already marked. however it occurred, my sword had killed nine sea-monsters. such night-dangers and hard ordeals i have never heard of nor of a man more desolate in surging waves. but worn out as i was, i survived, came through with my life. –beowulf: a new verse translation, seamus heaney read beowulf’s account of his battle at sea. which inference is best supported by the passage? beowulf is lying about what happened during the sea battle. beowulf is stronger and braver than the average warrior. beowulf protects his followers. beowulf will not survive his battle with grendel.

the answer is B

Beowulf is stronger and braver than the average warrior.

The inference that best supports the passage is "Beowulf is stronger and braver than the average warrior".

Explanation: Beowulf is certainly not the average warrior -  he survived his swimming contest in Breca, and killed many sea monsters. He explains he was able to accomplish those impressive feats because "fate spares the man it has not already marked". This means that if your fate hasn't already been determined, anything is possible through sheer courage and willpower.

based on the biblical principle proverbs 16: 32, i agree with the author of the passage "better is it that it takes longer to be angry than the strong " to the extent that i share the philosophy that the nobility of heart demonstrates the strength of a person. those who are very proud, get angry easily and show their anger toward others are really weak, but those who are noble and do not constantly obfuscate or contain their feelings of anger, are strong people
