Answer:
B
Explanation:
I got the question and it was B.
The story is basically saying that we can learn from our elders, because they have been around longer and have more experience than us.
You can see this when it says "the tree is older than you are...you might find stories in its branches".
I think that the answer to <em>"What could Mrs. Louis do next to be an effective participant in this discussion?"</em> is <em>"C"</em> or <em>"D"</em> which is......
<em>"C." "Move on to the next topic of conversation to keep the discussion on track
."</em>
<em>"D." "Challenge the validity of the report by questioning Mr. Hollembeak’s research methods."</em>
The rhythm of the excerpt supports the theme of the poem, because the rhythm is consistent, and Poe celebrates the simplicity of young love.
And here is why I think so...
At this point in the poem, we still don't see anything bad that is about to happen. He is just talking about a young woman whose only care in the world is to love the narrator, and be loved by him. Later on in the poem we will see why that is impossible, but here, there is still no word about that.
I hoped this helped! :)
