c. he escapes the sirens.
d. he asks circe's advice
i think its d plz

D. he asks Circe’s advice

When we look at the options present, we can see that there is cognitive ability being exercised on Odysseus’ behalf in three out of the four possible choices.  When he lies about his name to the Cyclops, he is outsmarting it.  When he participates in the archery contest he outsmarts his competitors by wearing a disguise.  When he escapes the Sirens, he outsmarts them by plugging his crew’s ears with wax and having himself bound so only he could hear the Sirens.  However, when Odysseus asks for Circe’s advice, he is relying on someone else’s cleverness.  

in "people in peace, not profit and war" chrisholm uses inductive reasoning for her argument against defense spending by stating that the new administration, like most americans, wanted to invest in social objectives, so they must not want to prioritize defense spending. mr. nixon said "we can delay no longer in launching new approaches to the problem that beset them", but chrisholm points out that the programs were delayed anyways.
