When Odysseus gives Polyphemus his real name, why does this cause trouble?

English
1 answer:
Sindrei [870]2 years ago
5 0

The correct answer is "Polyphemus then told his father Poseidon who had blinded him, and thus Odysseus and his crew suffered dreadfully from Poseidon's curse."

First, Odysseus told Polyphemus that his name was Nobody in order to prevent him from calling for help. This proves helpful when Odysseus blinds him and since he screams "Nobody is killing me" nobody helps him. But after Odysseus manages to blind him and escape, he admitts reveals his true name. This revelation allows Polyphemus to curse him and his father Poseidon sends a storm that wrecks Odysseus ship, and if he is able to arrive to Ithaca, the curse says that it will only be possible after spending years in the sea and losing all his companions.

Which of the following inferences is best supported by the passage below (paragraph 5)?
Solnce55 [7]

The correct answer is A. The author was confident in her preparation for the tryout.

Explanation:

In the paragraph, the narrator describes her perspective about the tryout, about this she specifies the routine was simple "The routine was easy to learn" and she had completely mastered the routine as the author explains " I practiced so much that I could do that routine in my sleep." In this context, it can be inferred or concluded she "was confident in her preparation for the tryout" because, in the text, most details focus on how easy the routine was and the abilities of the author to perform it.
