Question

Which conclusion can most logically be reached by synthesizing these details?

1) Frost had contempt for those who, like the bystanders in 'out, out–,' are not awestruck by the power of death.
2) Frost was a realist who saw life clearly and without sentiment, as demonstrated by his acceptance of the boy's death in 'out, out–.'
3) Some of Frost's poems express the falseness of daily life, as when people's failure to respond to the boy's death in 'out, out–' shows how numb life has made them.
4) Some of Frost's poems express the tension between daily life and what breaks with daily life, as when the boy's death in 'out, out–' punctures an ordinary day but does not stop life from going on.

Answer 1

The conclusion that can be reached is that Frost's poems express the tension between daily life and what breaks with daily life.

Step-by-step explanation:

The most logical conclusion that can be reached by synthesizing these details is that Frost's poems express the tension between daily life and what breaks with daily life. This conclusion can be supported by the fact that Frost had contempt for those who are not awestruck by the power of death, as seen in 'out, out–', and that he saw life clearly and without sentiment, as demonstrated by his acceptance of the boy's death in the same poem. Additionally, the failure of people to respond to the boy's death in 'out, out–' shows how numb life has made them, revealing the falseness of daily life.
