The correct answer is D. The poet feels that traditional sources of inspiration are ineffective in the modern world
Explanation:
In the poem "Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock", the author T.S. Eliot explores multiple themes including love, inspiration, and the contrast between the modern world and the past. In the excerpt presented, the author refers to traditional poetry and the inspiration he finds in it by using the mermaids as a symbol, this can be seen in the line "I have heard the mermaids singing each to each" that shows how the mermaids or traditional poetry sing or give ideas to the poet.
However, it seems this inspiration is not as effective as the author expects because in the end, the author and the mermaids "drown". Also, the cause of the traditional poetry drowning is the "human voices" which likely refers to the loss of traditional values in the modern how and the mundanity of it.

Answer:
The central idea of the text is that there are situations in which winning is the most important thing, as well as how this victory was achieved.
Explanation:
"The importance of Winning" is a text that highlights how the sense of winning and losing is relative and variable in several different situations. In this text, we can see that the author states that we are taught, since we were children, that winning is not the most important situation in our lives, what matters is that we participate and have fun in a situation. This can be true in school competitions, or playing with our friends. However, there are situations in which winning is very important and the way you win is essential. An example of this, can be seen in politics and for that, the text addresses the presidential election of France where one of the candidates was an ultra nationalist who wanted to expel all immigrants from France, while the other candidate was a conservative politician more tolerant of immigration and cooperation with other countries. This was a case in which winning was of extreme importance for both candidates and migrants.
Answer:
In her poem, "In a Queen's Domain", Piatt seems to be inferring that the world is not always perfect.
<u>“And my subject, the dove, coos on, / Though my hand creep close to her nest.”</u> tries to show that the world is made up of both the good and the bad people. The dove signifies the people that have a pure heart even though they are surrounded by people that seek to hurt them. The hand creeping close to the nest signifies the people that try to take advantage of the pure heart of the doves.
Piatt is depicted as imperfect and human because she conveys her realist views about nature and society. She does not seem interested in adhering to the romanticization of nature and women.
