Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

A metaphor designates identification of one thing with another with which is not literally identifiable. The comparison of "faces in the crowd" in a metro station with "petals on a wet, black bough" at first glance seems to have no relation. However, the underground image ressembles a beautiful view of nature for the speaker. This image might remind him of the flowers of a quiet and nice place in the country side. Accordingly, it is possible to be said that there is natural beauty in a city environment. A complex task when reading poetry is to make multiple associations to find meaning.

‘In a Station of the Metro’, written by Ezra Pound in 1913, is an Imagist poem. In these two lines, Pound´s intention may be interpreted as there is natural beauty in a city environment. (Answer 3)

The speaker who is at a station of Paris Metro underground gets the image that the faces of  people  are like the petals hanging on the ‘wet, black bough’ of a tree.This central image of the faces as petals is clear and simple It draws together the urban with the natural world making  nature the one who embellishes cities.

What is one step you can take to improve your feeling of balance between the two? What might be hard about taking that step, and
faust18 [17]

Finding balance is important because it helps one improve overall health and wellbeing. These are steps to follow to improve a balance between things, and they can be:

  • Setting boundaries.
  • Asking for help.
  • Take a break.

<h3>What is a balance?</h3>

Balance is simply known to be creating time for the things you have to do as well as the things you want to do.

Setting boundaries is a method of safeguarding one's emotional and physical space, and this can be hard because most often, people feel responsible for the feeling of others and this can be overcome by telling someone how something they're doing makes you feel and asking for what you need from them instead.

Hence, we can see that creating a balance helps to prioritize important things and pay attention to body needs.

Write a letter to your mother about your study in lockdown ​
andrey2020 [161]
<h3>To my loving mother,</h3>

First of all, I am writing this letter to let you know that I love you. I have loved you ever since the day I was born and I will love you until the rest of my life. I would like to thank you for bringing me up on this world, shaping me to become a person that I am now. I do not know what I would do without you. Words might not express the love that I have for you but I hope this letter would make you feel how serious I am to let you know that you are the most important person in my life. No one could ever replace you in my life. I remember when I was lost and not thinking clearly and without any doubt you are on my side helping me to get up again, stand up and be responsible for the mess that I did and have done. I hated you when you keep on insisting me to change the set of friends that I thought were my friends. I want you to know that I regret that I did not believe in you not until I have experienced the worst feeling that my so-called friends did to me. You saw me crying and you did not even blame me for making a mistake. You have said that it is okay and everything will be okay. You even told me that making mistakes is a part of life and that I should treat it as a lesson. A lesson that I should be learning and will make me stronger. I have made a lot of terrible mistakes and I even let you get mad and broken. Every day you keep on telling me that you love me and no matter what I do, you are my mother and that will never change. The love you have for me really is amazing, unconditional love that no one else could give. I also appreciate that every day that I go to school, you will not just let me go without eating anything. You told me that I should always eat and not letting myself starve and my health is important. Every time I get sick, those sleepless nights, staying up with me until I fall asleep and waking me up to let me drink my medicines and you will not sleep until you see me tucked in bed and asleep. I want you to know that I feel so lucky and blessed to have you as my mother. If ever I would be born again, I would and will be choosing you over and over. I cannot imagine my life without you. Again, please know that I am extremely sorry for everything that I have done wrong. I have failed you but you are still there to cheer me up to keep me going. I want you to know that I will forever be grateful to you and will continue living my life and become a better person every day. As long as I am breathing, I will be here for you and love you the best way I can.

With lots of love,

<h3>Your Daughter/Son</h3>
