What emotional reaction does Odysseus display upon realizing he is truly home?

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The question asks about the emotional reaction Odysseus exhibits when he realizes he is truly home.
Option 1: 'He silently swears vengeance against Athena' — This does not align with the moment of relief and gratitude typically described; vengeance is not the immediate emotion upon returning home.
Option 2: 'He kisses the ground and prays in gratitude to the Naiads' — This matches the described feeling of profound gratitude and reverence upon recognizing home, with a physical act of kissing the ground and a prayer directed to protective nature spirits.
Option 3: 'He remains indifferent, trusting only the gods' — Odysseus shows a strong personal, emotional response to being home, not indifference; he actively expresses gratitude rather than aloofness.
Option 4: 'He panics and begs the Phaeacians to return' — This contradicts the moment of return and relief; there is no panic or request to go back to the journey at that point.
In short, the scene centers on a tangible display of gratitude and reverence for home, making option 2 the description that best fits the emotional reaction. The other choices mischaracterize the protagonist’s feelings or the situational context, misplacing vengeance, indifference, or an immediate desire to reverse the homecoming.
