## Step 1The problem is asking us to evaluate the effectiveness of the author's use of references to ancient Greek myths, poems, and ancient Indian religious texts in supporting his thesis. The effectiveness of these references depends on how well they support the author's argument.## Step 2Option F suggests that the references are ineffective because the events in the myths and religious texts did not actually happen. However, the effectiveness of a reference does not depend on the historical accuracy of the events it refers to. Therefore, this option is not correct.## Step 3Option G suggests that the references are ineffective because the author does not connect the ancient stories with mornings. However, the effectiveness of a reference does not depend on whether the author connects the reference to the topic at hand. Therefore, this option is not correct.## Step 4Option H suggests that the references are effective because they show that there is historical precedent for the author's ideas. This option is correct because the effectiveness of a reference depends on how well it supports the author's argument.## Step 5Option J suggests that the references are effective because they illustrate how mornings heighten the author's intellect. However, this option is not correct because the effectiveness of a reference does not depend on whether it illustrates a specific point.
