The following observations can be made about Landscape with the Fall of Icarus:
A. The man with a horse is a noticeable figure.
C. The sun reflects on the water in the distance.
E. The scene shows different elements of nature.
<u>
Explanation:
</u>
-
Landscape with the Fall of Icarus is a canvas oil painting by "Pieter Bruegel the Elder" that depicts the legs of Icarus splashing into the water as its wings collapse.
- Icarus is often used as a metaphor for human pride and ambition. This exhibits the humanity, the season, the farmer and nature. Silently the author questions human nature and their self interest.
-
The poem sets out a rising theme of irresponsibility and individualism between mankind. Nowadays no one has time to consider about and stress about the concerns of others.
- The Fall of Icarus is humanity's downfall. This also shows weakening human ideals and human nature. Icarus interacted fairly with both nature and humans. The farmer had been able to support Icarus and keep him alive. Likewise, Icarus showed little loyalty to both the sun and the sea.

1. In my opinion, the correct answer is <span>B. Hamadi chooses to comfort Tracy, a total stranger to him, when she becomes upset. Hamadi doesn't have any particular reason to be close to Susan or Tracy, but he nevertheless takes interest in them and spends time with Susan. The C option may seem to be true, but it is just a juxtaposition to Susan's feelings for Hamadi, and not the real carrier of the theme of compassion.
2. In my opinion, the correct answer is </span><span>D. The reader would know more about Hamadi's inner thoughts and feelings and less about Susan's. The first-person narrator offers us a limited perspective, as he/she can't know what's happening in other characters' minds. But the author doesn't tell the story from Hamadi's point of view because Hamadi is just a catalyst for Susan's quest to find her own identity.</span>
