Odysseus and his twelve ships were caught in a storm which lasted for nine days and nights. At last, they saw land and leaving the others by a small island, Odysseus took one ship and set sail towards the land. When they arrived on shore. Odysseus and twelve men set off to explore a large cave. They waited inside the cave for the owner and at night fall, a huge one-eyed giant returned with his flock of sheep and goats. The Cyclops was very fierce and ate two of the men. He covered the
entrance to the cave with a huge rock so that there was no escape. Whilst the monster was out with his flock the next day, Odysseus and his men found a huge staff of wood. They used their swords to sharpen and smooth the narrow end. Then, they put the point in the fire to harden it. In the evening, they offered the monster
enough of their wine to send him into a deep sleep.
When the Cyclops was asleep, they thrust the sharpened stake into the fire until it was red hot. They rammed the blazing point hard into the single eye of the giant. The Cyclops wake with a terrible scream maddened with pain, he pulled the burning stake from his eye and hurled it away. In the morning, the Cyclops whose name was Polyphemous, pushed away the rock to let out his flock and sat with his arms out to catch the men if they tried to escape. Odysseus bound the sheep together in threes and tied a man under each middle sheep. He himself hung on under the largest ram Polyphemous counted each sheep as it went out but never guessed that the men were beneath them.
- Read the above passage and write in not more than 50 words how did Odysseus and his men manage to escape from the cave.
