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.

Write me a ghost story for a college student
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

"Late at night I usually go to the bathroom multiple times, but for the past four days, every time I go to leave, I can see myself still standing in the mirror from the corner of my eye. It is like the other me is watching me leave the bathroom. It terrifies me to the point where I almost run out without looking directly at the mirror. I never told my husband about it because I didn't want to acknowledge it out loud.

"Earlier today I took a nap in our bed while he sat in the chair next to it watching TV. When I woke up he told me that he had seen me sit up and crawl backward to the edge of the bed and stand up in front of our bedroom door from the corner of his eye. He thought it was weird that I got up like that because I'm in the last month of my pregnancy and I can't really move so well without it hurting, so he tried talking to me.

"When I didn't answer he looked at the door to find me not there and still sleeping in bed. I got really creeped out and I finally told him about what I have been seeing in the bathroom. He thought it was creepy as well but didn't want to really talk about it anymore because he thinks it will give whatever it is power or energy. I have no idea what it wants or why we both saw it."

Hope I helped if I did please give me brainiest Also have a happy Halloween <333 :3
