Answer:

The people on the ship keep on sailing after seeing Icarus fall into the sea.

Explanation:

The poem Musee des Beaux Arts by W. H. Auden contrasts the feelings of those who are suffering and those who are not. People who are not suffering seem to simply ignore and walk away from those who are, as if it's an inconvenience for them to even pay it the slightest attention. To the poem's speaker, artists are capable of capturing such suffering and of representing it in their work.

The painting of Icarus' fall from the sky into the ocean shows precisely that: how those who are safe inside the ship did not care about the boy they had just seen falling into the cold, fatal waters. As we can see it the following lines:

<em>In Breughel's Icarus, for instance: how everything turns away </em>

<em>Quite leisurely from the disaster; the ploughman may </em>

<em>Have heard the splash, the forsaken cry, </em>

<em>But for him it was not an important failure; the sun shone </em>

<em>As it had to on the white legs disappearing into the green </em>

<em>Water, and the expensive delicate ship that must have seen </em>

<em>Something amazing, a boy falling out of the sky, </em>

<em>Had somewhere to get to and sailed calmly on.</em>

Answer:

This is about creative writing, so you should learn to creatively write.

Explanation:

To be creative, you have to think outside of the box. Some of the most exciting creative writing is about things that don't exist. What are some things that probably don't really exist? Superheroes, time travel. You could write about how you find a time machine and travel to the past or future.

Just think: what multimedia(forms of art, tv, movies, books) do I like the most that is entirely fiction? Then, try to make your own story that you think is exciting.
