(B)
Troy was a very important city long ago. It was in a great place for trade because it controlled the entrance to an area now called Dardanelles. Back then, people knew whoever had Troy controlled the busy trade route. As a result, the war about Troy might have been more about useful reasons than just fighting over a woman. Since Troy's story comes from Homer's epic (史诗), it's no wonder some parts are bigger than real life. Movies based on it often add fun ideas, too.
In the late 1800s, a German man named Heinrich Schliemann went to Turkey to find Troy, because he loved Homer's stories very much. He dug at a big hill in Hisarlik and found something amazing: not just one Troy, but nine built on top of each other's ruins (废墟)! Though some didn't like how he dug, his work made more people interested in the Trojan War and linked old stories to real finds. Later, experts think the sixth Troy from the bottom is the famous one. It was proved to be a real and busy city at that time. Those old remains probably gave ideas to the Trojan War story.
The Trojan Horse might also have some truth. Some say the "horse" was a way to talk about ships. Others think a soldier betrayed (背叛) Troy and drew a horse on gates to tell the Greeks to attack when the Trojans weren't ready. Whether it was real or not, the Trojan Horse is a symbol of tricky war and has influenced how wars are fought. It shows how clever ideas can work.
Today, the Trojan War is a big part of Greek culture. You can see it in stories, plays, and art. These works talk about heroes, wisdom, and bravery. This culture also has influenced Western civilization for thousands of years.
