Answer:

c. Odysseus is religious and he believes in the power of the gods.

Explanation:

Homer's epic narrative "The Odyssey" tells the story of the king of Ithaca, Odysseus, who had been away from home for more than two decades. It narrates the journey of the king and his men, the hardships they endure and the various traps and obstacles they had to overcome.

The excerpt in the question shows when Odysseus and his men had taken the sheep of the cyclops in Book IX. They had just got away from the wrath of Polyphemus whose eye he had hurt, along with stealing things from him. But he also make it a point to offer sacrifices to the gods, especially Zeus who was lord over all. Even though "Zeus disdained [my] offering; destruction for [my] ships he had in store and death for those who sailed them, [my] companions", Odysseus did not waver in his reverence for the gods. This shows his religious nature, his faith in the gods and belief in their power.
