I believe it would be the second passage because an ellipse is used when a word, phrase or thought is left out but the reader still understands the intended meaning. In choice two, the narrator is speaking of school and making a point that he had never heard of a school for coloured people and restates it at the end that this was the first time he heard of it. It lets the reader imagine what must be going through his mind without stating it in the writing.

Poem: bag of bone
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

A. As the speaker turns from mourning murder victims  to accusing their executioner, the poem focuses on  the injustice of the dictator's rule.

Explanation:

 

<u> A. is the right answer. Around line 30 of the poem the shift occurs, the poet talks about the dictator as the murderer and points finger at him as the unjust ruler and tyrant</u>. The author is explaining how it is the dictator’s fault that millions are dead and how he also has “the heart and the skull”, and so does the audience that claps and supports him, but which can become the victim as well.

B. is not the right answer. The poem does not explore the experiences of survivors' feelings of guilt.

C. is not the right answer. The poem does not call people to action against the dictator.

D. is not the right answer. There is no part about securing closure for certain, and the poem ends ambiguously.
