The correct answer is A. Rhetorical question

Explanation:

A rhetorical device refers to a technique used to persuade the audience about an idea and that reinforces the main point in a speech. In the case of rhetorical questions, these are questions the speaker asks the audience without expecting them to answer them, as rhetorical questions are used to make the audience understand or think about a point. This is the technique used in the case of a speaker that asks multiple times "Who knows?" as the speaker does not expect this question to be answered but might use it to reinforce a point such as reinforcing doubt about a set of statements.

After reading the mentioned poems by William Wordsworth, we can say they are representative of the Romantic Period in the following manner:

<h3>Characteristics of Romanticism</h3>

Romanticism came as a response to the Enlightenment period. That means romantic writers rejected rationalism and religious intellect. They focuses on feelings and emotions, often representing them in an extreme manner - too much happiness or too much sadness.

Nature, along with love, is the most common theme in romantic literature. Nature is regarded as something divine, an endless source of inspiration and admiration. In the poem "I Wandered Lonely As a Cloud," for instance, Wordsworth shows how nature can make him happy.
