Read the passage from The Odyssey - Elpenor. By night our ship ran onward toward the Ocean's bourne, the realm and region of the Men of Winter, hidden in mist and cloud. Never the flaming eye of Helios lights on those men at morning, when he climbs the sky of stars, nor in descending earthward out of heaven; ruinous night being rove over those wretches. Which is the best paraphrase of the passage

The list of options are;

A. It’s always cloudy where the Men of Winter live.

B. It’s always misty where the Men of Winter live.

C. It’s always dark where the Men of Winter live.

D. It’s always sunny where the Men of Winter live.

The sentence that provides the best paraphrase is;

A misty atmosphere is one that is covered by particles and that makes it difficult to have a proper view of the environment.

In this description of the region where the men of Winter live, we see that the place is described as being "hidden in mist and cloud."

This best explains the fact that it would be difficult to have a good view given the mist and cloud.

This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:

Which is the best paraphrase of the passage?

It's always cloudy where the Men of Winter live.

It's always misty where the Men of Winter live.

It's always dark where the Men of Winter live.

It's always sunny where the Men of Winter live.

The best paraphrase of the passage is:

C. It's always dark where the Men of Winter live.

Explanation:

This question can be quite tricky, and here is why: the words "mist" and "cloud" are explicitly written in the passage. Of course, our first impulse is to imagine a cloudy or misty place and to choose either option A or option B, or even both. However, we need to keep on reading to fully understand the passage. Notice the speaker says, "Never the flaming eye of Helios lights on those men..." Helios is nothing more than the personification of the sun in Greek mythology. When he says its flaming eye never lights, he basically means his light never shines on those Men of Winter. No light means it is dark. It may be dark due to the excessive mist and clouds, but it is dark nonetheless because the light can't shine through. That is why letter C seems to be the best option.

different routes can lead to sammy to different places, with different roads.   if you check a map, you can see the routes.   try to make connections of the places and count how many there are.   hope this : )

a, overstatement is the answer
