Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

B). The speaker’s personal identification.

E).  The speaker’s approach to life.

Explanation:

The poem 'Song of Myself'(assumed) published in Whitman's collection 'Leaves of Grass' is one of his most acknowledged poems that primarily highlights the celebration of 'individuality'(self) and integrity of humankind(Americans in particular).

As per the question, the poem reveals the central idea of 'personal identification' or 'identification of self' which the poet experiences while moving through the journey of life. Another dominant idea in the poem is 'speaker's approach to life' is quite unified and optimistic as the speaker talks of common 'self' among the entire humankind. This idea is reflected by the speaker's admiration of self(reflects his contentment) and the life he's received(as it unifies him to the Almighty). Thus, options B and E are correct.
