King Arthur and his men try to reach a truce with Sir Mordred.Explanation:In a dream, King Arthur discovers that it is better for him to make a truce with Sir Mordred. He decides to seek peace instead of fighting, and goes to meet him. In these lines, we can see how the meeting goes. The meeting is peaceful and they agree on a treaty. Wine is ordered in order to celebrate. However, despite the treaty, the leaders do not trust each other and they both ask their men to be ready to fight if they see a drawn sword.
C) An arm appears out of the water and shakes the sword three times. Explanation: in a text, a main idea is important information that tells more about the overall idea of a paragraph or section of a text. In the given passage from Morte d’Arthur by Sir Thomas Malory, we can see the description of how Sir Bedivere throws the sword into a lake, and an arm appears out of the water and shakes the sword three times, before vanishing into the water along with the sword. The option that represents the main idea of this paragraph is option C.

In this passage from Morte d’Arthur by Sir Thomas Malory, the key word to understand the whole idea of the happenings is: adder, it means snake.And if you still have doubts about the general idea of the passage and think that the first three options: “King Arthur attempts to slay, or kill, Sir Mordred”. “Sir Mordred fatally wounds King Arthur”.” King Arthur and Sir Mordred are expressing their distrust of each other.”  Can be correct, read this sentence:“and so rode to his party, and Sir Mordred in likewise.”None of the first three options can be posible if the two of the knights go together to a party afterwards.The right answer is:A knight kills a snake with his sword.
