1. The excerpt that best convey empathy is A: "...At  me, thy earth-born companion,/ An' fellow mortal!" This sentence manifests the understanding of another's feelings and problems.

2. the answer is D: a translator. Although Chapman was also a poet, John Keat wrote "On First Looking into Cahpman's Homer" in honor to Chapman because his  free translation of Homer's works made a huge impression on Keat.

3. The answer is A: archaic language. The words thou (you) and wert (were) are old used terms.
