I think the answer is a fog
Carefully choosing, or selectively choosing
B) polishing grammar and style since these affect credibility
Answer:
"And when I am formulated, sprawling on a pin,
When I am pinned and wriggling on the wall,
Then how should I begin
To spit out all the butt-ends of my days and ways?"
Explanation:
Oh, this poem is so good..
I've selected the portion in the poem when the narrator uses metaphor to compare himself to an insect. In this part, he asks what will happen when he is "pinned and wriggling," like a butterfly or beetle that's pinned to a bug collection. Eliot uses this so artfully, my nerd hackles are raised. He's asking -- when I am helpless, uncomfortable, and all my deepest self is exposed -- how shall I explain myself, and who shall I be then?
Conditional mood.
Conditional mood describes an if/then type of sentence. <u>"</u><u>If</u> condition A is met, then B will occur".
The imperative is a demand, e.g. "Go to your room"!
Subjunctive and Indicative are not correct either.
