Read these excerpts from the way to rainy mountain by n. scott momaday:
then the twins remembered something that the grandmother spider had told them: "if ever you get caught in the cave, say to yourselves the word thain-mom, 'above my eyes.'" when the giant began to set fires around, the twins repeated the word thain-mom over and over and over to themselves, and the smoke remained above their eyes.
when aho saw or heard or thought of something bad, she said the word zei-dl-bie, "frightful." it was the one word with which she confronted evil and the incomprehensible. . it was not an exclamation so much, i think, as it was a warding off, an exertion of the language upon ignorance and disorder.
which sentence best explains how the personal narrative enhances the meaning of the mythical description?
a. it expands upon the myth by revealing that the word zei-dl-be is derived from thain-mom.
b. it supports the myth by showing that evil and ignorance are all around us.
