Everyone knows a guy like Jared: the burnout kid in high school who sells weed cookies and has a scary mom who's often wasted and wielding some kind of weapon. Jared does smoke and drink too much, and he does make the best cookies in town, and his mom is a mess, but he's also a kid who has an immense capacity for compassion and an impulse to watch over people more than twice his age, and he can't rely on anyone for consistent love and support, except for his flatulent pit bull, Baby Killer (he calls her Baby)--and now she's dead.
Jared can't count on his mom to stay sober and stick around to take care of him. He can't rely on his dad to pay the bills and support his new wife and step-daughter. Jared is only sixteen but feels like he is the one who must stabilize his family's life, even look out for his elderly neighbours. But he struggles to keep everything afloat...and sometimes he blacks out. And he puzzles over why his maternal grandmother has never liked him, why she says he's the son of a trickster, that he isn't human. Mind you, ravens speak to him--even when he's not stoned.

The answer to you're question is D
Answer:
What prevents Odysseus from killing the sleeping Cyclops is:
C. He knows that they cannot move the boulder blocking the doorway.
Explanation:
Odysseus is the hero in the epic poem "The Odyssey", by Homer. At a certain point, he and his men end up trapped in a land filled with Cyclopes, one-eyed giants who eat men. <u>Odysseus has the chance to kill the Cyclops who keeps him and his men hostage, but he realizes he cannot do it:</u>
"[...] if I killed him we perished there as well, for we could never move his ponderous doorway slab aside."
<u>A slab is a large and heavy piece of concrete or stone. Odysseus knows that, if he kills the Cyclops, they will all die since they cannot escape. He and his men do not have the strength or the means to move the boulder aside and free the way out.</u>
