A. Dark and Somber
<span>“The Hollow Men” by T.S Eliot is a dark and very meaningful poem, written just after the war and when Eliot was going through a difficult marital stage.</span>
Answer:
B. "Nope," she said, folding her arms. "No mice in this inn."
Explanation:
Dialouge implies that a character is speaking to another character and this is the sentence that clearly has this.
<span>Stimuli mean a thing that energize someone which causes functional reaction.
Therefore, the sentence which uses the word correctly is:
b. Jill was taken in by the bright lights and other stimuli surrounding her in Las Vegas.
This means that Jill was getting interested to her surroundings due to the lights and other amusing things in Las Vegas which is referred to as the stimuli.</span>
Emotions that I felt:
Shock, dread, like a void/empty, pensive and melancholy.
Why?
There is morbid detail in this poem which relates to soldiers of war who have died.
Despite their honorable sacrifice in war, in modern times, they have become forgotten (highlighted by the indifference of the conductor) and have become associated with the grass of the Earth.
This relates to a much quoted verse from the Old Testament of the Bible “All men are flesh”.
The main principle is that men are born of dust and shall once return as dust/soil (to the Earth) - elements of this are also true even for non-believers - carbon cycle.
