They tend to think that their own culture and their way of life is the correct one and the one the other people have is wrong. It is like going to a Catholic school and then an Atheist comes and tells you "No, your beliefs are wrong." It is all basically because they all think they are right.
To answer this question we need to understand that Odysseus has a desire that he shares with all Homeric heroes, it is the desire to gain glory through his exploits and deeds. At various points in the text, we see the way in which Odysseus rather arrogantly ignores the advice of different characters or does what he thinks is best without thinking of the consequences of his actions and what might happen to both himself, and his men, as a result. The best example is when, at the start of his wanderings, Odysseus was so focused on gaining glory that he deliberately revealed who he was to the Cyclops, Polyphemus. As a result this brought down calamity on both himself and his men because the cyclops, Polyphemus was the son of Poseidon, God of the sea and earthquakes.
However, by the end of the story, when he reaches Ithaca, he deliberately bides his time and disguises himself as a beggar instead of rushing home and declaring who he is to the group of extremely hostile suitors, shows how he has developed and changed. He is not the same glory-hungry individual who often committed rash and rather vacuous actions in order to gain kudos. Instead, he tempers this aspect of his character with the need for patience, and remains incognito until he has established his position and what men are loyal to him and he is ready to strike. The text therefore indicates that Odysseus as a character learns from his mistakes and develops during the course of his journey.
This is the technique of using your opponents young age to say that he is not qualified.
Answer:
Option C
The ability to have an effect on the behavior, character, or actions of someone else
Explanation:
The word influence has quite a number of meanings which may vary based on the context which it is used.
We can analyse the situation presented in the problem statement "Dara could influence my decision to vote for Joy in the student body election " to find the meaning based on this context.
We understand that the influence used here most likely means that Dara can affect the choice I make for a candidate during the election. If this happens it means that Dara can affect my behaviour, character or action, as regards to taking a decision during the election.
This makes option C the most appropriate answer
