What evidence from the text supports the conclusion that Gilgamesh demonstrates courage and takes risks? Check all that apply.“Dread surged through Gilgamesh, terror flooded / his muscles, his heart froze, his mouth went dry, / his legs shook, his feet were rooted to the ground.”“Gilgamesh backed away. He said, / ‘How dreadful Humbaba’s face has become! / It is changing into a thousand nightmare / faces, more horrible than I can bear. / I feel haunted. I am too afraid to go on.’”“Gilgamesh felt his courage return. / They charged at Humbaba like two wild bulls.”“Gilgamesh saw it, he leaped upon him, / he held a knife to Humbaba’s throat.”“He yelled, he lifted / his massive axe, he swung it, it tore / into Humbaba’s neck”
