Question

drawing a conclusion by comparing characters
what conclusions can be drawn about odysseus based on a comparison between him and
at apply.
odysseus is nothing like the different creatures he meets.
odysseus shares some personality traits with the supernatural creatures he defeats.
odysseus is careful to show that he is concerned about his men.
odysseus is more clever than the cyclops.
odysseus and the cyclops both care about taking care of other people.

Explanation:

• Odysseus shares some personality traits with the supernatural creatures he defeats. For example, both can be cunning in their own ways (though Odysseus uses it for good like getting home, while some creatures use it for harm).
• Odysseus is careful to show that he is concerned about his men. He tries to lead them safely and makes plans considering their well - being.
• Odysseus is more clever than the Cyclops. He outsmarts the Cyclops with his plan of telling the Cyclops his name is “Nobody” and then blinding him.

The Cyclops does not care about taking care of other people (he eats Odysseus' men), so the statement “Odysseus and the Cyclops both care about taking care of other people” is wrong. And Odysseus is not “nothing like” the different creatures he meets as there are some trait overlaps.

Answer:

Odysseus shares some personality traits with the supernatural creatures he defeats.
Odysseus is careful to show that he is concerned about his men.
Odysseus is more clever than the Cyclops.
