Explanation:

Epics are long narrative poems or stories that tell the deeds of a hero against adverse situations, sometimes involving supernatural forces. They also relay a moral theme for the readers in their trials in achieving their goals.

From both of the epic stories read by Margo, the theme of humility and humbleness are reflected and valued. In the first epic, the family of the sailor kept his homeland even at times of adversaries, even though they needed the "bribes of food and money offered in exchange for the land". Instead, they chose to live humbly and proudly within their own expense, making safe the home is intact when their father returns.

Likewise, the second epic also shows the couple living in simplicity, away from their 'deserved' and rightful palaces and riches. Their royal background means nothing to them in comparison to living a life of happiness and safety. Choosing humility and humbleness in contrast to wealth and royalty, they embody a good moral virtue to be learned by the readers.

given the fact that the question is about the detail that best support the idea that oppressive leaders use   propaganda to achieve thir goals,   the first option does not refer to any kind of propaganda, since it only tells about that the milk and the windfall apple should be reserved for the pigs. in the second option, that is, "snowball and napoleon sent out flights of pigeons whose instructions were to mingle with the animals on the neighbouring farms, tell them the story of the rebellion, and teach them the tune of "beasts of england". it can be identified that the oppressors make use of the propaganda, which is represented by the pigeons, and the information they have to tell other animals about what was happening in the farm in order to get their objectives. for that reason, the right answer is the second option, taking into account that the third option do not refer to propaganda since it only talks about that they did not want jones back. and, finally, the last option refers to the result of the given news, but it does not mean about the propaganda they used to achieve their goals.
