Explanation:
In the poem, we note an interesting detail in the last two lines as to why the old woman sees herself as a "terrible fish". The line says,
<em>"In me she has drowned a young girl, and in me an old woman / Rises toward her day after day, like a terrible fish."</em>
The woman uses such expressions above to show that with the passage of time, her youthfulness like a drowning fish has passed away, bringing old age.
By comparing herself to a fish, she symbolizes her aging self to a fish on land seeking survival after it is taken from its natural habitat.

The correct answer is D. Mood
Explanation:
In literature, including poetry, the mood refers to the atmosphere created by the author or the narrator through the election of words, the setting, the theme, and other literary elements. Additionally, this atmosphere evokes specific feelings, emotions, reactions, and thoughts on the reader. In the case of poems, the mood or atmosphere that evoke certain feelings or emotions is prevalent during all the poem in most cases, but in longer literary works such as novels the mood changes with the actions of the characters and the setting of the story. Examples of mood include words related to feelings such as sad, serious, dark or peaceful. Considering the previous ideas it can be concluded the feeling or emotional quality that a poem evokes or creates on the readers is called "mood".
