9. Below is the last stanza of a poem, "Dover Beach," written in 1876 by Matthew Arnold. Ah, love, let us be true To one a
nother! for the world, which seems To lie before us like a land of dreams, So various, so beautiful, so new, Hath really neither joy, nor love, nor light, Nor certitude, nor peace, nor help for pain; And we are here as on a darkling plain Swept with confused alarms of struggle and flight, Where ignorant armies clash by night. Which one of the following statements best characterizes Arnold's view of the world? A. The world is just a dream. B. The world is a confusing and hostile place. C. The world is made for lovers. D. The world is not a beautiful place.
The world is a confusing place: "And we are here as on a darkling plain Swept with confused alarms of struggle and flight..."
The world is a hostile place: "the <u>world... Hath</u> really neither joy, nor love, nor light, Nor certitude, nor peace, <u>nor help for pain</u>... Where ignorant armies clash by night."
The correct answer is D. the world is not a beautiful place. It is not B because they are not confused by evil, rather by struggle and flight, and armies clashing by night.
