Answer 1

The answer is B. The rising sun is always a symbol of hope for a new beggining.

Answer 2

B. Facing the rising sun of our new day begun

Step-by-step explanation:

The metaphor utilized for expectation here is the utilization of a picture of "rising sun". The speaker of the sonnet conjures that the "new day" of splendor will touch base through the battles of freedom. The rising sun alludes to the new day and new expectations with the fresh start. Since the sun is lovely and splendid, in this way through the picture of the sun the speaker anticipates the future to be brilliant and excellent.
