Is the forth question A or b?
To determine the correct answers to these questions, one would need to analyze the text of Ode 2, Ode 3, Ode 4, and the events that take place in the play Antigone.
For the first question, one would need to read Ode 2 and find the section where the Chorus compares Antigone to something. The options are a cresting wave, a soaring bird, a glowing ember, and a closed flower. By examining the context and imagery used in the ode, one can determine that the Chorus compares Antigone to a glowing ember. Therefore, the correct answer is c. a glowing ember.
For the second question, one would need to read Ode 3 and identify what the Chorus comments on. The options are the power of love, duty of sons to their fathers, relationship of Haimon and Antigone, and the effect of Creon's inflexibility. By analyzing the theme and content of Ode 3, one can determine that the Chorus comments on the duty of sons to their fathers. Therefore, the correct answer is b. duty of sons to their fathers.
For the third question, one would need to read the last few lines of Ode 4 and identify who the Chorus places responsibility for Antigone's death on. The options are Niobe, Creon, the family curse, and Antigone herself. By examining the language and context of the ode, one can determine that the Chorus places responsibility for Antigone's death on the family curse. Therefore, the correct answer is c. the family curse.
For the fourth question, one would need to know the events that actually take place in the play Antigone. The options are Teiresias blaming Creon for causing his birds to behave strangely, Creon burying Polyneices after failing to save Antigone, the Chorus imploring Dionysos to head Thebes in the Paen, and the messenger announcing Haimon's suicide. By understanding the plot of the play, one can determine that the event that did not take place is Creon burying Polyneices after failing to save Antigone. Therefore, the correct answer is b. After Creon fails to save Antigone, he buries Polyneices.
