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.

How does a supply curve differ from a demand curve, and how
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

There isn't a lot to work with here but I will give the best answer I can.

The supply curve measures how much product there is to be sold. As more product becomes available, the curve goes up, vice versa.

The demand curve measures how many consumers are needing this product. The same principle above applies.

The difference in price can vary based on multiple factors and scenarios, but the most basic fluctuations occur when the balance between the two curves tips. For example, if the supply curve became lower than the demand curve, (indicating there are more consumers needing the product than there is in supply) the price of the product may increase sharply, vice versa.

Good luck! I hope this helped!
