I think it's D too, because with the others he is using his own intuitive to solve his problems, but in D he asks others for help.

D. he asks Circe’s advice

When we look at the options present, we can see that there is cognitive ability being exercised on Odysseus’ behalf in three out of the four possible choices.  When he lies about his name to the Cyclops, he is outsmarting it.  When he participates in the archery contest he outsmarts his competitors by wearing a disguise.  When he escapes the Sirens, he outsmarts them by plugging his crew’s ears with wax and having himself bound so only he could hear the Sirens.  However, when Odysseus asks for Circe’s advice, he is relying on someone else’s cleverness.
