Read the excerpt from the odyssey. i shall not see on earth a place more dear, though i have been detained long by calypso, loveliest among goddesses, who held me in her smooth caves, to be her heart's delight, as circe of aeaea, the enchantress, desired me, and detained me in her hall. but in my heart i never gave consent. where shall a man find sweetness to surpass his own home and his parents? in far lands he shall not, though he find a house of gold. what characteristics of odysseus, the story’s epic hero, are most shown in this excerpt? knowledge and strength confidence and courage leadership and perseverance character and loyalty

The answer is character and loyalty.

Explanation:

The Odyssey was written by ancient Greek poet Homer and it is the sequel of  The Iliad. The Odyssey narrates the trip Odysseus has to take after the Battle of Troy in order to get back home. This last idea (the return) is also very important in the excerpt, because the speaker mentions how important it is to be at home and with the loved ones (such as the parents.) Due to this, the correct answer is option D.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
