There, on a sunny peninsula in southern Europe, surrounded by the clear blue waters of the Mediterranean Sea, ideas and principles were forged that still shape our modern world."

Which of the following details supports the main idea?

Question 1 options:

Greek ideas of citizenship and democracy remain some of our most cherished values.

In this world, a city of white marble, dedicated to wisdom, shines like a beacon by the sea.

In their stories, the Greeks explained what they thought made a person a hero, a true friend, or a fool.

The Greeks believed that the gods and goddesses caused everything that happened in their world.

The main idea is that some of the ideas and principles in ancient Greek society still impact the modern world. The answer choice needs to be something that was ancient Greek and still around today. The first choice is the best because it states that the Greek ideas are "our most cherished values." This tells us that these values around citizenship and democracy are still around today.

Option 2 is not good because it doesn't say anything except that a city shines...not relevant. Option 3 is not a good choice because it only states that the stories explained how people were seen. The last option is also not correct because it is about how gods and goddesses were a direct cause of everything that happened in the world. This is not a commonly held belief any more.
