I assume this is from the short play "the sound of music goes underground" ? Im not quite sure. But a quick google brings it up.
Explanation:
a. Its a place where mortals have gone, because, being mortal, our lives are short and we can be easily killed. Mortals havent returned because they are dead when they get to the underworld.
b. Because the gods and goddesses love music just as much as mortal men
c. Hades is the ruler of the underworld lol, and he lost the opportunity to rule elsewhere in a bet to the other gods.
d. Its dark because its the underworld, its mysterious because nobody ever goes there and comes back to tell the living about its secrets, and the feeling of distrust? Maybe people seem not to trust orpheus because he is a living man going to do what had never been done before.

The courage that my mother had
Went with her, and is with her still:
Rock from New England quarried;
Now granite in a granite hill.

She left behind for me to wear;
I have no thing I treasure more:
Yet, it is something I could spare.
Oh, if instead she’d left to me
The thing she took into the grave!—
That courage like a rock, which she
Has no more need of, and I have.

which two sentences most clearly describe historical elements?
We followed the crowd of people funneling onto the bridge to cross into Manhattan. I had to crane my neck backward to look up at the top of
the closest tower. My eyes followed the long swooping wires as they stretched down and over to the next tower. The wires shimmered in the
sunlight and I was sure they were made of the most precious metal.
The crowd walked unhurriedly, taking in each detail of the new spectacle. As we neared the other side of the river, I saw a group of people
chattering excitedly. "Papa, what's going on there?" I asked curiously.
Papa glanced over toward the crowd. "Why that's President Arthur himself," he exclaimed.
I thought to myself that it must really be an important day if even the president attended. Looking around at all the people. I was suddenly glad
to be wearing my best clothes.
As fireworks went off that evening, I said to Papa, "They really did it, Papa, didn't they?"
"Yes," he said with a smile, "they really did."
Answer: ''We followed the crowd of people funneling onto the bridge to cross into Manhattan.'' and ''Papa glanced over toward the crowd. "Why that's President Arthur himself," he exclaimed.''
