Which excerpt from "Perseus" best represents a characteristic of a Greek hero?

1) [Andromeda] had boasted that she was more beautiful than the daughters of Nereus, the Sea-god.

2) [Athena and Hermes] told him which one was Medusa and that was important, for she alone of the three could be killed; the other two were immortal.

3) King Acrisius of Argos had only one child, a daughter, Danaë. She was beautiful above all the other women of the land.

4) Polydectes evidently talked to Perseus about [Gorgons]; he probably told him that he would rather have the head of one of them than anything else in the world.
