THE ODYSSEY, PART II TEST STUDY GUIDE QUESTIONS WITH COMPLETE

SOLUTIONS ANSWERED AND VERIFIED


In the excerpt from the Odyssey, Part 2, what does Odysseus order

Telemachus to do when Odysseus gives him a signal?

- to round up all armor, lances, gear of war left in the hall and stow them away back in

the vaulted storeroom

- if men should ask where they are Telemachus would say he wanted to move them out

of the smoke so they wouldn't get dirty or that it was to protect the men from harming

each other with the arms when they got drunk

What happens in the episode involving Odysseus' dog, Argus, in the

excerpt from the Odyssey, Part 2?

- Argus was treated like rubbish and was left outside sitting on a mass of dung in front of

the gates

- he died after seeing Odysseus for the first time in 20 yrs

***Which character traits does Penelope embody in the excerpt from

the Odyssey, Part 2?

- welcoming to guests (beggar and suitors [even though they were rude])

- curious (about info regarding Odysseus)

- clever (by weaving the shroud in the daytime and unweaving at night to prevent

marriage to a suitor) and (by declaring she will marry the man who is able to string

, Odysseus's bow and shoot an arrow through twelve ax handle sockets)

- nostalgic (by remembering Odysseus and longing for what she shared with him)

- no strength to evade marriage to a suitor

- wariness (of Odysseus because she is not sure if it is really him)

- relief (her husband is home after 20 yrs)

***Which attitude or talent most clearly helps Odysseus triumph in

the bow-and-arrow challenge in the excerpt from the Odyssey, Part

2?

- patience (took his time stringing his bow and checking it for borings from termites

when he was gone)

- ability to ignore suitors jests and comments

- skill and accuracy with the weapon

Why did Penelope test Odysseus toward the end of the excerpt from

the Odyssey, Part 2?

- tests to see if Odysseus is truly her husband [gods have the ability to deceive and

shapeshift]

Review the following sentence that includes the word "dissemble"

from Part 2 of the Odyssey:

"Son of Laertes and gods of old, Odysseus master of landways and

seaways, dissemble to your son no longer now. The time has come:

tell him how you together will bring doom on the suitors in the

town."

What does the word dissemble mean?
