Answer:

The statement that best paraphrases evidence to support the conclusion that Gilgamesh is a fierce warrior is "Despite his fear, Gilgamesh boldly charges at Humbaba"

Step-by-step explanation:

Several lines support this statement in the poem such as, "Gilgamesh felt his courage return. / They charged at Humbaba like two wild bulls." , "Gilgamesh saw it, he leaped upon him, / he held a knife to Humbaba's throat." and "He yelled, he lifted / his massive axe, he swung it, it tore / into Humbaba's neck" these lines describe how he feeling afraid confronted Humbaba and gave it all in battle.
