Explanation:
<u>"Similarly" serves to compare. It commonly appears at the beginning of a sentence in which the information presents similarities with an idea or fact that has already been pre</u>sented. An example with "similarly" is:
- Cats are scared of dogs. Similarly, dogs are not very fond of cats.
<u>"So... that" is used with an adjective. The purpose is to amplify that adjective to imply that the characteristic or feeling it describes led to a certain result or consequence.</u> An example with "so... that" is:
- I was so disappointed that I left the room immediately.
<u>"As.. as" is also used with an adjective, and it also indicates a comparison. It shows - unless the sentence is negative, of course - that two people or things are at the same level when it comes to a certain attribute.</u> Example:
- Josh is as talkative as his brother Leon.

Explanation:
This excerpt doesn't give much detail but I'm pretty sure this is Polyphemus speaking. He is a cyclops, and son of Poseidon. When Odysseus and his men were trapped in a cave with the giant man-eating cyclops, they plotted to blind him and escape. So Odysseus got Polyphemus drunk on some kind of wine and waited for him to pass out. Then they got a huge stick or branch, sharpened the end and plunged it into the giant's eye. One can easily surmise that Polyphemus would seek revenge for this, so answer B is definite. Answer A might be an additional factor, as Polyphemus does refer to him in this passage as "raider of cities"--indicating perhaps some disapproval--but the damage to his (only!) eye would be the most important issue, since that is personal.
