Question

Which line from the passage best shows that Penelope is clever?

Answer 1

"The lines in the story ‘The Odyssey’ that show that Penelope is clever is, ‘reached their hearts that way, and they agreed.

So every day I wove on the great loom, but every night by torchlight I unwove it;’

These lines clearly show that Penelope did not want to marry but without saying it blatantly she played her suitors along and bought time cleverly.
