Answer:
This aspect of ancient Greek culture is symbolized in the passage in the following way:
A. The Sirens appear enchanting, but they are lethal.
Explanation:
Ulysses, the Sirens, and Circe are all characters in the famous epic poem "The Odyssey" by Greek poet Homer. Ulysses, also called Odysseus, takes several years to finally go back home after the Trojan War. During his journey, he runs into monsters, witches, and enchanted creatures.
The Sirens are what we usually call mermaids. They are used in the passage as a symbol to represent the two different aspects of the sea: its beauty and its deadliness. The Sirens at first appear enchanting. They are beautiful and sing a most appealing song. However, they are lethal. Their song seems to hypnotize men and lure them to their death by drowning. The same can be said of the sea. It lures people with its immensity and beauty, but it also kills them.

Answer:
"O miserable abundance, O beggarly riches!" – John Donne ➡️ Oxymoron
"What a pity that youth must be wasted on the young." – George Bernard Shaw ➡️Paradox
Explanation:
The literary devices are oxymoron and paradox.
Oxymoron is known as a rhetoric device which is usually self-contradicting; the words seem to contradict each other.
Like the sentence: "O miserable abundance, O beggarly riches!", An abundance that is miserable is self-contradictory. "Beggarly" means that there is lack and poverty. But yet riches is attached. So, it's an oxymoron.
Paradox is known to be a logically self-contradictory statement. It tends to go against common sense but yet somehow it looks true.
The sentence: "What a pity that youth must be wasted on the young." - youth has to do with being young but yet the statement says it is wasted on the young; that's self-contradictory but can be true.
