In "loveliest of trees, the cherry now" by

English

"A Shropshire Lad 2: Loveliest of trees, the cherry now" is a really short poem, only three stanzas long, that was written by author A.E Housman and which made part of a larger collection known as "A Shropshire Lad", that was published in 1896. This volume, as well as "Last Poems", which was published in 1922, were the only two poetic works published by Housman. "A Shropshire Lad 2: Loveliest of trees, the cherry now" narrates the story of a person, the speaker, who is reflecting on the passage of time, especially of his own years, as he observes nature around him and its changes, especially the cherry blossoms, spring and the land where he is standing. He also reflects on his own mortality and the way in which he may correctly pass the last 50 years that he has left, after having lived 20. Throughout the poem, there are many symbols that speak about passage of time and the shortness of life, but nothing shows how fast things might change in an instant, better, than the image of the C: Cherry blossoms, as the speaker notes that they are in bloom, dressed all in white, but just like his life, which is passing by, this might change really fast. So he wants to start taking advantage of the time he has left and live life to the fullest.

Answer:

c. cherry blossoms  

Explanation:

"Loveliest of Trees, the Cherry Now" is one of the best instances of Housman's lyrical poems. The rustic setting of the Shropshire forests in springtime is a delightful sight, to view, with the cherry tree—the loveliest of trees—in full white sprout to commend the season of resurrection and revival related with Easter.

However the excellence evokes genuine emotion of despairing in the speaker, who understands that life is to be sure short; and regardless of whether he lives to his full future, that, as well, will be too short an opportunity to see such magnificence as these trees in sprout.

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

There was a particular day that our teacher came to my class and announced that we had Mathematics test the next day. This really felt like a bad timing for me because my best friend, John was having a birthday party and I had to attend immediately I get home.

I had to choose between attending the birthday party or studying so as to prepare for the test. When I got home, I left for the birthday party, I returned home late and slept off because I was really tired after partying hard.

I got to school the following day and couldn't answer the Mathematics questions as I didn't prepare. I had 24% and I was really sad. I paid the price for bit studying and really learned that "Every action has a consequence".
