Which sentence from the passage best supports his inference? well, friend unferth, you have had your say about breca and me. but it was mostly beer that was doing the talking. the truth is this: when the going was heavy in those high waves, i was the strongest swimmer of all. we’d been children together and we grew up daring ourselves to outdo each other, boasting and urging each other to risk our lives on the sea.?

This excerpt is from Beowulf. Luka's inference is that even though Beowulf is a warrior, he often uses diplomacy instead of fighting. Therefore, the correct answer is "But it was mostly beer that was doing the talking", where they discuss in order to avoid unnecessary aggression.

answer to question #1: the simile that occurs in the text given (lines 43-47) is: ''life is too much like a pathless ''

explanation: a simile is a comparison of one thing with another thing and it is used to make a vivid description. it uses like or as. in the text, we can understand that the person is feeling weary of considerations and because of this, the person compares ''life'' to ''a pathless wood''.

answer to question #2: in this text we can understand that the word frost could mean anger, annoyance and bitterness, due to the fact that the person is stating that he/she is feeling weary of considerations and compares life to a pathless wood.

explanation: the word frost means coldness and something covered by ice crystals but looking at the comparison made in this text, we can understand that the word frost could mean anger, annoyance and bitterness, due to the fact that the person is stating that he/she is feeling weary of considerations therefore he/she compares life to a pathless wood.
