read the following sentence: "she did everything she could to make
him immortal: she burned him over a fire every night, then
dressed his wounds with ambrosial ointment, and she
dunked him into the river styx, whose waters were said to
confer the invulnerability of the gods. however, she gripped
him tightly by the foot as she dipped him into the water - so
tightly that the water never touched his heel. as a result,
achilles was invulnerable everywhere but there."
which of
the following conclusions is most supported by the
selection above?
a.) achilles' mother might have been more successful at protecting her son if
she had, paradoxically, been a tiny bit less protective of him as a baby.
b.) achilles' mother was desperate to make her son immortal, but her
unilateral focus on this aim would give achilles a false sense of strength.
c.) achilles' mother probably went to great lengths to ensure he was protected
from violence and danger because she had suffered trauma before.
d.) achilles was acutely aware of his strength due to his mother's efforts to
make him immortal, and this gave him great confidence later in life on the
battlefield
