Read the poem "Not Waving but Drowning” by Stevie Smith.

English
1 answer:
Maru [420]2 years ago
5 0

It refers to both the speaker’s inability to help and the drowning man’s position in the water. Thus, option "D" is correct.

<h3>What is the theme of poem?</h3>

The mother of the dead man is not a participant in the poem. She is not mentioned explicitly in any of the verses, and there is no evidence to prove she has an impact on the dead man's current situation.

It could be argued the mother plays a role in the line "'It must have been too cold for him his heart gave way'... They said", but this phrase is rather attributed to the dead man's friends, as the speaker of the phrase is referred as "They".

Thus, option "D" is correct.

To further increase your knowledge based on the topic discussed in this lesson, write an essay expressing your own attitude as a
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

Well in the midst of this pandemic, I basically feel normal. As to some other people who would feel depressed or fustration, I feel nothing. In the start of the pandemic, it basically made the students adapt to something they have never experienced before. Being away from friends. Some being away from their own families due to the crisis. Number one thing this pandemic taught me you should respect the people around you. Also, what you do today matters. It affects you and the people around you. That one change can go a long way. It can go on from 10 years to 20 years, to 30 years, and so on, and so on. You can either treat people how you want to be treated or treat people with disrespect and when you need them the most, you will be surprised if they say no. I personally respect everyone. I give money, I try to inspire people. Give them a laugh, because sometimes, all it takes is a smile or a laugh to make the day better. So my attitude in the midst of the pandemic is usual.

Explanation:

Also, respect your parents because they go through a lot. You don't want to end up without parents, because you rely on them too much.

Have A Great Day ^-^
