Your answer is D. Pride and anger.

Hope this helps.

Answer: D) Pride and anger.

Explanation: In the given excerpt from "The Odyssey" by Homer, we can see the description of Odysseus' attitude after he blinded the Cyclops. He yelled to the Cyclops that if ever a mortal asked him who blinded him, he could answer that it was Odysseus. He reveals his name to the Cyclops motivated by his pride and anger ("but let my anger flare and yelled") so the correct answer is option D.
