B is the answer it is correct I took this test thank you
Answer:
were thinking
Explanation:
when I last saw you, you were thinking of moving to your village
This excerpt probably should have included the verse following it, which
is "Here is Odysseus' hall, no hall like this!" So they are standing at
the gate at the home of Odysseus.
He has in fact made a long
journey home, so B could be correct. The journey did require patience
and endurance, so A could be correct. But I would go with D, happiness
upon returning home.
A reasonable argument could be made for
all of the above. Symbolism can be subjective, and each reader may
interpret things differently.
I suppose I would say “Italics” hope this helped
