Read the excerpt from the odyssey.

now zeus the lord of cloud roused in the north
a storm against the ships, and driving veils
of squall moved down like night on land and sea.
the bows went plunging at the gust; sails
cracked and lashed out strips in the big wind.
we saw death in that fury, dropped the yards,
unshipped the oars, and pulled for the nearest lee:
then two long days and nights we lay offshore
worn out and sick at heart, tasting our grief,
until a third dawn came with ringlets shining.

which key details should be included in a paraphrase of this passage? check all that apply.

a. the storm was a direct result of zeus’s fury at the men.
b. for two days and nights, zeus created a storm at sea.
c. odysseus and his men feared greatly for their lives.
d. the sails on the ship cracked in the heavy winds.
e. the men felt grief as they lay offshore and waited.
