Answer:
The "web" that is mentioned in the passage refers to the burial shroud woven by Penelope as a way of delaying her need to chose a new husband among the many suitors.
Explanation:
Homer's epic narrative "The Odyssey" tells the story of how Odysseus had been gone from his home for about two decades. His wife had been pestered continuously by the men in the kingdom of Ithaca to remarry and make a new king, for her husband Odysseus had been gone for a long time.
But the cunning Penelope made a plea that she be allowed to weave a burial shroud for her father in law Leartes, who's grown old. She agreed to marry one of the suitors when she finished the shroud. But through cunning and bravery, she would weave the shroud during the day but undo it at night so that the weaving cannot be ever finished until she is sure that Odysseus is back or confirmed dead. This is the web that the passage from Book II mentions, the web being the shroud that she had been weaving as an excuse to not remarry.

Maslow's hierarchy of needs helps people understand themselves in a new way.
Explanation:
You haven't provided the passage, but based on the way the question was formalized and the options you were given, I can answer your question anyway.
Because the question asks <em>which statements</em>, we know that there is more than one correct answer. Based on the options, I can conclude that the passage tells about psychology and then about Maslow's hierarchy of needs.
A summary is a shortened version of a piece of writing (e.g. article, poem, chapter, novel). It should contain only the text's main ideas and the most important supporting details. The main idea of a text is the main point the author is making.
An objective statement is a statement based on facts. Unlike subjective statements, they are not influenced by a person's personal opinions, beliefs, feelings, or assumptions.
Only these two statements are objective and represent the main ideas:
- <em>Psychology is the branch of science that studies the mind and behavior.</em>
- <em>Maslow's hierarchy of needs helps people understand themselves in a new way.</em>
The rest of the options are supporting details and contain subjective language, which is why they can't be correct.
