Question

Read this phrase from Allen Ginsberg's "A Supermarket in California." I wandered in and out of the brilliant stacks of cans following you, and followed in my imagination by the store detective. From this excerpt, it can best be inferred that the speaker is:__________

Answer 1

Answer:

A). Unconcerned about time.

Explanation:

Allen Ginsberg's poem 'A Supermarket in California' is one of his minor poems dealing with the variations in life(American) portrayed by Whitman and Ginsberg. The speaker visits a supermarket in California and fantasizes Whitman and Lorca shopping there which reflects Ginsberg's optimism.

From the given excerpt, the best inference would be that the speaker is 'unconcerned about the time' that reflects the inadequacy of interest and fret(as he keeps wandering around and imagining) . The speaker rather focuses on glorifying Whitman's bequest and legacy. Thus, option A is the correct answer.
