Question 5





Choose the answer.

Take a close look at lines from "The Black Snake":

Black snake! Black snake!

Looped in a tree,

Limp as a licorice whip

Flung free.

Answer 1

1. A, the poet is excited. None of the other feelins match (annoyed, protective or frecuent encounters)

2.A. The use of stanzas in this poem create space and slow the pace, as can be seen in the first two lines. The reader can also see it is intentional, therefore option D is also dismissed.

"A narrow Fellow in the Grass

Occasionally rides -

You may have met him? Did you not

His notice instant is -

The Grass divides as with a Comb,

A spotted Shaft is seen,

And then it closes at your Feet

And opens further on -" (First two stanzas)
