Read the excerpt from Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. The knight on his horse turned in his saddle, And wildly he flashed his red eyes around, Arched his bristling bright-green eyebrows, And waved his beard, waiting to see who would stand up. When no one would answer him, he gave a loud cough And stretched as a lord might, and made ready to speak. What statement best describes the knight's actions? He is awaiting an invitation to join the festivities. He is intimidating and challenging the assembled group. He is preparing to deliver a lecture to the crowd. He is entertaining the dinner guests with his wild antics

    The statement that best describes the knight's actions is the second option "He is intimidating and challenging the assembled group" because in this part of the novel the Green knight interrupts a feast that King Arthur shares along with his guests from his court, and since the Green knight wants to meet the person in charge of it, he makes these gestures to demand a quick answer, so they (the gestures) lead the crowd to be stunned and silent until finally King Arthur steps forward and invites the Green knight to the meal, but he refuses and instead challenges the other knights in the room to a combat.
