Read the excerpt from Muir's essay "Calypso Borealis" and answer the question. [5] How long I sat beside Calypso I don't know. H

unger and weariness vanished, and only after the sun was low in the west I splashed on through the swamp, strong and exhilarated as if never more to feel any mortal care. At length I saw maple woods on a hill and found a log house. I was gladly received. "Where ha ye come fra? The swamp, that awfu' swamp. What were ye doin' there?" etc. "Mony a puir body has been lost in that muckle, cauld, dreary bog and never been found." When I told her I had entered it in search of plants and had been in it all day, she wondered how plants could draw me to these awful places, and said, "It's god's mercy ye ever got out." Examine the details Muir includes in this paragraph. Which statement accurately explains how Muir's response to nature compares to the log house owner's response? He is enthusiastic and in awe while she is doubtful and fearful. Muir cautiously admires whereas the lady shows religious dedication. The lady is more interested in the bog while Muir is fascinated by plants. They both admire nature—its intense dangers and its true treasures.

He is enthusiastic and in awe while she is doubtful and fearful.

In the passage he says that he felt "strong and exhilarated" while he explored the swamp. The women, however, talks about how people have gone missing in the bog and she's surprised he ever made it out. It also says that the woman doesn't understand "how plants could draw [him] to these awful places". Because the woman doesn't understand his fascination with the bog, it's clear that she isn't interested in the bog and doesn't admire its intense dangers and true treasures.

"The Guitar" by Federico Garcia Lorca

       The weeping of the guitar
<span>       begins.
       The goblets of dawn are
       smashed.
       The weeping of the guitar
       begins.
       Useless
       to silence it.
       Impossible
       to silence it.
       It weeps
       monotonously
       as water weeps
       as the wind weeps
       over snowfields.
       Impossible
       to silence it.
       It weeps for distant
       things.
       Hot southern sands
       yearning for white camellias.
       Weeps arrow without target
       evening without morning
       and the first dead bird
       on the branch.
       Oh, guitar!
       Heart mortally wounded
       by five swords.
