Read the excerpts from frankenstein and the divine comedy. the first excerpt describes the reaction of the character victor frankenstein to a monster he has created. the second excerpt describes the character dante’s encounter with king minos and other creatures as he journeys through hell. which two statements correctly describe the connection between these two excerpts? {both narrators describe gazing upon a hideous being.} {frankenstein believes his monster to be even more gruesome looking than the creatures dante faced in hell.} {frankenstein’s monster reminds him of minos from dante’s inferno.} minos from dante’s inferno and frankenstein’s monster are one and the same. {frankenstein purposely creates a monster that physically represents the creatures in dante’s inferno.} frankenstein by mary shelley (excerpt) oh! no mortal could support the horror of that countenance. a mummy again endued with animation could not be so hideous as that wretch. i had gazed on him while unfinished; he was ugly then, but when those muscles and joints were rendered capable of motion, it became a thing such as even dante could not have conceived. the divine comedy: inferno by dante alighieri (excerpt) from the first circle i descended thus down to the second, which, a lesser space embracing, so much more of grief contains provoking bitter moans. there, minos stands grinning with ghastly feature: he, of all who enter, strict examining the crimes, when they arrive before the ruinous sweep, there shrieks are heard, there lamentations, moans, and blasphemies 'gainst the good power in heaven.

Select the contred text in the passage which sentence in this excerpt from john galsworthy's narrative essay "gone" reflects his view that there is no afterlife? an old woman and mrs. herd's sister were in the sitting-room, they showed us to the crazy, narrow stairway. though we lived distant but four hundred yards of a crows flight, we had never seen mrs. herd before, for that is the way of things in this land of minding one's own business a slight dark girlish-looking woman, almost quite refined away, and with those eyes of the dying, where the spirit is coming through, as it only does when it knows that al is over except just the passing. she lay in a double bed with clean white sheets. a white-washed room, so low that the ceiling almost touched our heads, some flowers in a bow, the small lattice window open. though it was hot in there, it was better far than the rooms of most families in towns, living on a wage of twice as much, for here was no sign of defeat in decency or cleanliness. in her face, as in poor herd's, was that same strange minging of resigned despair and almost eager appeal, so terrible to disappoint. yet, trying not to disappoint it, one felt guilty of treachery: what was the good, the kindness in making this poor bird flutter still with hope against the bars, when fast prison had so surely closed in round her? but what else could we do? we could not give her those glib assurances that naive souls make so easily to others concerning their after state. and the night was so beautiful, so utterly glamourously beautiful, with its star-flowers, and its silence and its trees clothed in moonlight. all was tranquil as a dream of sleep. but it was long before our hearts wandering with poor herd, would let us remember that she had slipped away into so beautiful a dream
