Read the excerpt from part 2 of the odyssey by homer.

we would entreat you, great sir, have a care
for the gods' courtesy; zeus will avenge
the unoffending guest.'

he answered this

from his brute chest, unmoved

'you are a ninny,

or else you come from the other end of nowhere,
telling me, mind the gods! we cyclopes
care not a whistle for your thundering zeus
or all the gods in bliss; we have more force by far.

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
