Answer
Srimati’s beauty attracts the attention of a wealthy man. Without someone to protect her, she gives in to temptation and deserts her home and son.
Explanation:
In "The Poison Tree," the author develops the theme that beauty without morality is dangerous. In this story, we see that Srimati is a very beautiful woman, and this leads her to attract the attention of a wealthy man. She has no one to protect her, which means that she ends up giving in to temptation. This, moreover, leads her to abandon the house of Surja's father and her son Tara Charan.
The correct answer to this is:
The Cyclops is compared to a mast, or flagpole, because of his size.
The similie suggests that even Cyclops is laying down he is still huge and looks like a mast among the sheep.
In the excerpt from Part 2 of the Odyssey, Cyclops is not compared to Zeus, rather the men are "lifting hands to Zeus" (praying) because they are being eaten and need help from Gods.
Also, Cyclops does not surrender, he is taking a nap as he is full after his meal.
