The answer is indeed letter B.

Explanation:

Our purpose is to combine sentences 8 and 9 from the excerpt:

(8) Umbrella comes from the Latin word umbra.

(9) Umbra means “shade.”

Since "umbra" does not refer to a person, we may eliminate the relative pronoun "who" and choose between "that" and "which". Option B does precisely that: it uses the pronoun "which" to substitute "umbra" and connect the sentences:

b. Umbrella comes from the Latin word umbra, which means “shade.”

the lines show odysseus disguised as a beggar and shares his bread with another beggar in a weird way because he had to defeat him in order to eat. however, odysseus does not kill the old man and even shows his hospitality.
