How does this excerpt prove that Odysseus causes his crew’s demise?

by explaining his haphazard travels
by describing his loyalty to Zeus
by showing his physical weakness
by revealing his ignorant assumptions

Answer:

Odysseus' haphazard travels, loyalty to Zeus, his physical weaknesses, and also his ignorant assumptions lead to his and his crew's demise.

Traveling in many voyages throughout the vast seas, Odysessues repeatedly exemplifies a sense of irrationality and irresponsibility. Because of his inability to become an embodiment of the meaning of a true leader, Odysseus' risky endeavors put the lives of his shipmates in danger.

Odysseus' unfaltering loyalty to the god Zeus also contributes to how Odysseus leads his crew to their demise. Odysseus fails to recognize the important moral values, prioritizing Zeus above all else, thus leading to the demise and destruction of his crew.

Moreover, Odyssseus also displays his physical weaknesses, such as the natural human nature to fall at the mercies of temptation. One of the most prevalent examples of this trait is shown when he is about to leave the Cyclops;  foolishly and egotistically, he proclaims his name, thus enabling the Cyclops to curse him and his crew.

Alongside his ego, recklessness, and unquestionable loyalty, Odysseus also becomes overconfident in his abilities and his inventory and friends. His crewmates are not only his crew, but his companions, as they have faced many harships together throughout their voyages. His ignorant and asumptuous nature belittles others, causing anger and conflicts with the others. With the Cyclops, he had expected the utmost hospitality. Since the Cyclops do not abide by the same rules as Odysseus, the Cyclops is angered, causing a brawl. Odysseus disrespects and severely injures the Cyclops, which causes the Cyclops to call out to his father Greek god Poseidon to curse Odysseus and his voyages and crew.

Read the two passages and answer the question.

Passage 1

[1]Nothing that comes from the desert expresses its extremes better than the unhappy growth of the
tree yuccas.Tormented, thin forests of it stalk drearily in the high mesas, particularly in that
triangular slip that fans out eastward from the meeting of the Sierras and coastwise hills. The
yucca bristles with bayonet-pointed leaves, dull green, growing shaggy with age like an old
[5] man's tangled gray beard, tipped with panicles of foul, greenish blooms. After its death, which is
slow, the ghostly hollow network of its woody skeleton, with hardly power to rot, makes even
the moonlight fearful. But it isn't always this way. Before the yucca has come to flower, while
yet its bloom is a luxurious, creamy, cone-shaped bud of the size of a small cabbage, full of
sugary sap, the Indians twist it deftly out of its fence of daggers and roast the prize for their
[10] own delectation.

Passage 2

[1]I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
[5]Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
[10]Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
[15]A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:
I gazed—and gazed—but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:

For oft, when on my couch I lie
[20]In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.

Both passages describe a plant. The yucca tree "stalks drearily" while the daffodil "dances." What does this word choice reveal about how the two passages view nature?

Passage 1 views nature as harsh while Passage 2 views nature as delightful.
Passage 1 views nature as intense while Passage 2 views nature as relaxing.
