Which of the following choices best describes the language used in the extended simile  comparing odysseus to a musician as he strings the bow? but the man skilled in all ways of contending, satisfied by the great bow’s look and heft, like a musician, like a harper, when with quiet hand upon his instrument he draws between his thumb and forefinger a sweet new string upon a peg: so effortlessly odysseus in one motion strung the bow. then slid his right hand down the cord and plucked it, so the taut gut vibrating hummed and sang a swallow’s note. a) harsh and strident b) rhythmic and fast c) flowing and harmoniousd) resounding and celebratory

C) flowing and harmonious.

The excerpt compares Odysseus' use of the bow to a talented musician because of the flowing and harmonious skill he displays. The adjectives used convey an image of musicality and harmony. Some descriptions that contribute to this tone are: "with quiet hand," "a sweet new string," "effortlessly" and "sang a swallow's note."
