Answer:

C. He is filled with sorrow and hides his tears in his cloak.

Explanation:

Homer's epic narrative poem "The Odyssey" tells the journey of Odysseus in his attempts to reach his home Ithaca. Enduring a plethora of hardships and even an intervention from the gods, he reached his home after being away for more than two decades.

Book VIII of the narrative takes place in the land of the Phaeacians. Odysseus was a guest in the kings palace, though in a disguise and no one remembered him. But through the feasting and sharing of news/ stories, Odysseus was emotional to hear of old tales and all about his known associates. Then, when the musician played the music, he could no longer control himself. The singer Demodocus sang about the "<em>feats of heroes, and more especially a matter that was then in the mouths of all men, to wit, the quarrel between Ulysses and Achilles, and the fierce words that they heaped on one another</em>". All these filled Odysseus with sorrow and he had to hide his face to wipe his tears away, without the knowledge of the Phaeacians.

Answer:

Watch the movie and then buy his sister a gift she will  enjoy.

Explanation:

The given passage from "The Quinceanera" shows how the narrator was in a dilemma on what to do- either get his sister a gift or go to the movies which he had already planned to see. He knows he has to get the gift but he also did not want to miss the movie.

And then, he mentioned that his sister loved movies so maybe he can get "two birds with one stone". He will go to the movies and get her move tickets for a gift, which simplifies his dilemma. So, going along the narrative, we can best predict that he will go to the movies and then get her a gift she will enjoy.

Thus, the correct answer is the third option.
