a. Children

b. The gods

c. Violence

d. Masks

Greek theatre depicted tragic and gruesome stories with regularity. However, the most violent events were described, but never shown onstage. There were several reasons for this. First, Greek people believed that, by refraining from showing such violence, the audience would be more engaged in the story. However, there were religious considerations as well, which encouraged them to avoid depicting death, or its proximate cause.

Answer 2

IF your choices are the following:
a. Children
b. The gods
c. Violence<right
d. Masks

Then the answer is letter C.
The Greek dramas refrain from showing violence because they believe that the audience must never witness any act or occurrence that impinged on a human or animal body so as to be the proximate cause of a death, and that in tragedy, the audience must not witness any person inflicting a blow on any other person.
