Answer:
Your answer is Option A
Explanation:
Based on the given poem, the narrator says that he hears the flute of the narrator from his room and it is very beautiful, when it is dark.
He further narrates that in the daytime when the neighbor plays the flute, he does not want to hear it because it is daylight and the neighbor is far and has a bald head so he runs away and looks for something else to occupy his time.
When night time approaches, when he bears the flute, he tries to remove the image of the fat, bald man and think of him as a young man and the music is sweet to his ears once again.
The contrast the narrator creates develops the theme of the poem by portraying the narrator's vanity by wanting the beauty of the music to match the image of the man (option A)
I believe you have a typo when it comes to the first option - it should be athletics, not athletic. The word athletic is an adjective, and the word athletics is a noun.
That being said, the correct answer is A. athletics. Even though this noun ends in -s, it is still singular. The rest of the options are all plural nouns.

The use of the comma here is incorrect because t<span>hese are two independent clauses and should be separated by a semi-colon or a period not a comma. Hope this is what you are looking for. </span>
