The excerpt attached to the question above is given below:
Read the excerpt from Part 1 of The Odyssey.
Now Zeus the lord of cloud roused in the north
A storm against the ships, and driving veils of squall
moved down like night on land and sea.
The bows went plunging at the gust;
sails cracked and lashed out strips in the big wind.
We saw death in that fury, dropped the yards,
unshipped the oars, and pulled for the nearest lee:
then two long days and nights we lay offshore.
ANSWER
The correct options is this: With cooperation, crew can defeat the gods.
From the above passage, we can see that, Zeus, the god of the cloud, set up storms against the crew men in order to kill them. But the men acted promptly and escaped to the nearest safety and stay there for two days without bothering to move at all, thus defeating the aim of the Zeus, the god of the cloud.
