Answer:

She came into the room with some messages in her hand and she said that she found them while she was arranging the desk drawers.

Explanation:

Reported speech is speech without direct quotations. All we have to do is rewrite the sentence in a way that still makes sense without the direct speech.

In the above given poem two poetic devices are used that are;

Refrain
RefrainPersonification

Before the main answer I would like to explain what are these terms?

<h3>Refrain:</h3>

Refrain means when a line or a sub-sentence is used before starting a new stanza. When the line or sub-sentence is used more than one time, It can be perfectly called as Refrain.

<h3>Personification:</h3>

Personification means when the quality of humans is given to a non-living or non-human thing.

Here you can see in the 6th and 8th line rhyme scheme is used but we will not consider it because it is not used in the complete poem.

Personification: (2nd and 4th line)

My eyes don't tear: Tear is a human quality which is given to a non-human thing i.e. Eye.

My heart doesn't cry: Same as second line, Here cry is a quality of human which is given to a non-humam i.e. heart.

Refrain: ( 3rd and 7th line)

Doesn't mean: Here after completing the second stanza again "Doesn't mean" is used that's why we are considering it in refrain.

What is the effect of envisioning “aged years” as needing a staff in these lines from the passage?

myrzilka [38]

The correct answer is option D ("It reveals how weary the speaker is of waiting to see what effect she might have had on others").

Throughout this poem, the author expresses her hope of getting to see the youth evolve by the hand of the elder's teaching; while at the same time being anxious for the future and worried of what will be of her well-being. She's starting to feel tired and afraid that she might not get to experience one of the few joyous things she can envision about aging.

She talks about needing a staff to get by as she gets older, as this is a long stick used to support a person's walking.

Hope this helps!
