A. It is easy to uphold morals when one is not suffering.
Explanation:
<u>In this part of the epic poem The Odyssey, by Homer, the hero Odysseus and his men have landed on an island.

However, the men are only capable of upholding their morals and respecting the order to not kill the cattle while they are not suffering. As long as they have food and wine, the cattle is safe. But, once they have consumed their provisions, they forget about their morals and the warning, kill the cattle, and end up dead as a punishment from the gods.</u>
