C. The speaker compares the broken fishing lines to “medals” to show that the fish’s survival is a triumph.  

When you analyze a poem, there are many things into which you will want to take into consideration—tone, imagery, word choice, etc.  When looking at word choice, you’ll want to take be aware of a word’s denotation as well as connotation.  The denotation is what the word literally means.  The connotation is what the word draws out of the reader by manner of symbolism.  When we think of a “medals,” we think of awards at the end of a contest (think gold, silver, and bronze medals from the Olympics).  Thus, “medals” here means a victory that the fish has earned as it has triumphed over the fisherman.

Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

1. c.

2. d.

Explanation:

1. The excerpt is overwhelmingly dreary as everything is described in tones of grey and as a derivative of ashes. The only touch of color mentioned in the passage are the eyes of the doctor.

The mood is very depressing as even the smallest tasks are describes as arduous labors. Words that contribute to the bleak and dreary landscape are: ash-grey, desolate, grotesque, crumbling, ghastly, leaden, impenetrable cloud, obscure, and bleak.

2. The train stopping at the drawbridge is almost like an unwanted interruption in the lives of the rich and famous who live in the lap of luxury and have enough money to travel in the fastest and most expensive transportation at the time.

The stop in the Valley of Ashes is described almost sarcastically as if the passengers in the train would have desired to take in the bleak and somber landscape of the dark and filthy valley laden with ash and industry.
