<span>The correct answer is D. The theme of this excerpt is that the old can regain honor by taking up challenges again.
Here, the speaker notes that his mariners are old; however, he says, "old age hath yet his honour and toil." By this he means that their work need not be done.
It is still possible for them to regain their honor through toil. "Some work of noble note, may yet be done," he says, before they die. Therefore, the main theme of this excerpt is that the old can still gain honor by taking up challenges (or toil) again.</span>
I’m pretty sure a question that you can’t answer
The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is an exceptional book published on 16 October 1950. The story is about four children who are taken out of London to avoid the Blitz and went to live with a professor in his large house. Living there, they discovered a wardrobe that led to a secret passageway to Narnia.
Similarly, in 1941 children were taken out of East London to escape the effects of World War II. These children came from different families and consolidated with one another in times of need.
The theme of the book and real-life events has striking similarities. The children in the book bond with another world to escape the realities of life while, the wartime children made friendships with each other to ease their frustration.
