Question

Read the excerpt from "Madam and the Rent Man" by Langston Hughes. He said, Madam, I ain't pleased! I said, Neither am I. So we agrees! Which best describes the poet's attitude in the last two lines of the stanza?

Answer 1

Answer: d. determined

Step-by-step explanation:

The poem speaks of a woman in a house with a lot of problems and she tells the agent that she'd rather go to hell than pay with all those problems.

The agent in the last stanza expresses their disappointment to which the woman replies that she is as well. This shows that she was very determined not to pay unless the house problems are fixed.
