Homer is best known as the author of the Iliad and the Odyssey. He was believed by the ancient Greeks to have been the first and greatest of the epic poets. Author of the first known literature of Europe, he is central to the Western canon.
When he lived, as well as whether he lived at all, is unknown. Herodotus estimates that Homer lived no more than 400 years before his own time, which would place him at around 850 BCE or later. Pseudo-Herodotus estimates that he was born 622 years before Xerxes I placed a pontoon bridge over the Hellespont in 480 BCE, which would place him at 1102 BCE, 168 years after the fall of Troy in 1270 BCE. These two end points are 252 years apart, representative of the differences in dates given by the other sources.

The correct answer is D. The truck’s engine is more powerful than the station wagon.
Explanation:
In grammar, an "illogical comparison" is used to described mistakes in sentences when trying to establish a comparison this mainly occurs when the objects that are compared do not belong to the same category and therefore the comparison is illogical or does not make sense. This occurs in the case of the sentence "The truck’s engine is more powerful than the station wagon" because the "truck's engine" is being compared with the "station wagon" which is a vehicle, instead of the "station wagon's engine" and therefore there is an illogical comparison because an engine cannot be compared to a vehicle but only compared to another engine.
