Answer:

The correct answer is A: when Telemachus invites Athena, disguised as Mentes, to feast in the palace of Ithaca.

Explanation:

This passage is seen when Telemachus invites Athena into his palace. During this visit, Athena politely interrogates Telemachus, who as her host must follow the guest-hospitality law of xenia.
