‘if i could take your life i would and take
your time away, and hurl you down to hell!
the god of earthquake could not heal you there! '
at this he stretched his hands out in his darkness
toward the sky of stars, and prayed to poseidon:
‘o hear me, lord, blue girdler of the islands,
if i am thine indeed, and thou art father:
grant that odysseus, raider of cities, never
see his home: laertes' son, i mean,
who kept his hail on ithaca.

Odysseus shows nothing wise in that response, quite the opposite. And for sure, no forgiveness in those words, either. Odysseus is angry and he wants to turn that anger into action, so he is not calm. With that, we eliminate options B, C and D.
In the end, we have the logical correct
A.He has put himself and his men in even more danger.
His "speech" doesn't bring any solution, which endangers himself and his men.
By the time when Odysseus executes the cyclops, 10 years go by before he can return home. While on the voyage home, him and his men need to go to Hades's domain and they need to make it pass Polyphemus. Odysseus even gets caught on the island of where lived the witch Circe.
