Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
Read the poem. Then, answer the question(s). From "Broken Windows" An old willow with hollow branches Slowly swayed his few high bright tendrils And sang: "Love is a young green willow Shimmering at the bare wood's edge." Which theme does this poem best support? A. Those who are old know nothing of love. B. Love must be nurtured in order to grow. C. Love is best experienced by the young. D. Those who are immature do not appreciate love.
Answer:
B. Love must be nurtured in order to grow.
Explanation:
The old willow is rambling on love, when he says that love is like a young willow, we can interpret that he is saying that love, like the young willow must be fed, nourished and cultivated in order to grow. This is because a young willow will never grow and last without elements that strengthen it, that feed it and without it it will die still young, without showing all its beauty and grandeur.
Answer:
These lines are from Shakespeare’s play King Lear in which Edmund deliver these lines to express his dissatisfaction with the society’s attitude towards illegitimate sons.
Explanation:
He bitterly resents his own half-brother, Edgar who is deemed legitimate by his father and stands as a sole contender to inheritance. Therefore, Edmund is determined to seize those privileges which are to be given to Edgar and tricks his father Gloucester by making him believe that Edgar is plotting against the king. Edmund is deprived of any respect of rank in the kingdom because of his illegitimate birth and thus forges himself into personal prosperity by betraying his father. He explains his sentiments of betrayal when he says “Wherefore should I
Stand in the plague of custom and permit The curiosity of nations to deprive me”. He is determined to attacks the plague of customs and is not permitting the society to deprive him of his right to inheritance. He is set to take to back the reputation and familial love that he has been denied since birth and is thoughtful of any means necessary to gain recognition.
