Geijer’s comment supports MacGregor’s point because:

  • It illustrates the popularity of tea in Britain during the 1800s.

<h3>What is the main point of the text?</h3>

The passage highlighted the importance of tea to the British people in the 1800s and the beginning of the 1900s.

The figures that were portrayed in the passage support the point that tea consumption now marked the lives of the Britons. So, option C is right.

As it got cheaper, tea also spread rapidly to the working classes. By 1800, as foreigners remarked, it was the new national drink. By 1900 the average tea consumption per person in Britain was a staggering 6 lbs (3 kilograms) a year. In 1809 the Swede Erik Gustav Geijer commented:

Next to water, tea is the Englishman's proper element. All classes consume it . . . in the morning one may see in many places small tables set up under the open sky, around which coal-carters and workmen empty their cups of delicious beverage.

A) She uses comparisons to show the speaker’s connection to the snake .

"A narrow fellow in the grass...

------------------------------------------------

Yet when a child, and barefoot,

I more than once, at morn..."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dickinson also said how the snake seemed scary to a lot of people, but in reality it was not:

"But never met this fellow,

Attended or alone,

Without a tighter breathing,

And zero at the bone.
