Answer:

The best answer is indeed the first option: <u>Wake up and quit wasting time inside. Get outside and into the light!</u>

Explanation:

In his poem "Song of the Open Road", Whitman talks of not wanting to be confined any longer. The speaker has decided to live out in the open, to travel and see the world. He even claims that healthy and beautiful people are formed by air and light, by spending their time outdoors. The speaker feels free and welcomed by the world, which is now his home.

In the excerpt we are studying here, the speaker is inviting someone, possibly the reader, to come with him. He's urging the reader to leave the confinement of his own house and embracing freedom outside. Thus, the best paraphrase for the passage is "Wake up and quit wasting time inside. Get outside and into the light!"

The first sentence best paraphrases the passage because the text mentions escaping the dark confinement which symbolizes isolation and loneliness. The first sentence accurately paraphrases  the passage's message to live life and not spend all of one's days inside a house.

lozanna [386]
I read the paragraph with the phrase "<span>“But I am not tragically colored”.

She is colored but she did not experience the tragedy other colored people experienced because of their color. She defied the concept that one has of colored people. For her, being colored is just a part of her life. She does not harbor any bitterness or entertain any negativity about her plight as a colored person. She knows that there is more to life and in life than the pigment of the skin. She does not let other people's prejudice deter her from seeking her own life's journey.
