Ulysses


Froggy Jumps UlyssesOnline version comprehension questions by Lama AlShami 1 To what major biographical event did Tennyson write Ulysses? a The death of his father b The death of his best friend c Having to quit college to support his family 2 Why does Ulysses (the narrator) hunger/strive for adventure? a he is revolting against the sheltered life of aristocracy b he misses the epic struggles of his youth c his home life has conditioned this desire within him 3 Ulysses is primarily an example of a an epic b a sonnet c a dramatic monologue 4 In the end, what is the best description of Ulysses' character? a A noble hero who refuses to succumb to time and old age b A complex character who is portrayed as a selfish statesman and a noble hero at different times c An aging man who is resigned to his degrading quality of life and becomes highly apathetic 5 What classic work most influences Tennyson's poem, Ulysses? a Sophocles' Oedipus Rex b James Joyce's Ulysses c Homer's Odyssey 6 Who is the speaker in the poem addressing? a His son, Telemachus b Not very clear, himself or someone else c His crew 7 What is a main theme explored in the poem? a Seeking adventure and the meaning of life b The joy of life c The destiny of one's life 8 "I cannot rest from travel: I will drink / Life to the lees: all times I have enjoyed / Greatly, greatly, have suffered greatly..." Which best describes the primary function of these opening lines in establishing the speaker’s perspective? a They characterize Ulysses as an insatiable seeker whose identity is inextricably bound to continuous motion and engagement. b They establish a tone of deep regret regarding the physical hardships endured during the Trojan War c They reveal a monarch who is exhausted by leadership and seeks literal death rather than further experience. 9 "How dull it is to pause, to make an end, / To rust unburnished, not to shine in use! / As though to breathe were life!" In context, the metaphor of the "unburnished" rust primarily serves to emphasize: a Ulysses’ fear of physical deterioration and senility in old age. b The societal decay of Ithaca under his current peaceful rule. c The speaker's belief that an unexamined, inactive life degrades human potential and vitality. 10 One equal temper of heroic hearts, / Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will / To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield." The final line of the poem shifts the thematic focus from personal frustration to: a A political manifesto directed at the citizens of Ithaca. b A collective, defiant existential endurance against the limitations imposed by time and mortality. c A religious surrender to the ultimate authority of the Greek gods.
