The quick answer is A, I believe.

It is the closest thing to sarcasm in the poem. It is more of a wail that it is sarcasm. It bemoans the fact that you can easily fight people who are not as well equipped as you are to carry on a battle.

He doesn't mock their inability to fight back. The line that is sarcasm isn't mentioned. Laughter drowns out the pain and wailing.

The natives are doing the laughing. The British are.

The red and brown is more or less just a fact.

A is the closest thing you have to an answer.

The participants listen to classical or instrumental music in a quiet room
Lena [83]

This question is incomplete, here´s the complete question.  

Read the text.

Did you know that you can manage stress and cure an illness with music? In some universities in the

United Kingdom (UK), professors offer their students the opportunity to lower their stress level by

listening to music or learning to play an instrument. It Works effectively because people who relax with

music before or after any activity feel better and they study happily. All the courses start in a quiet

environment. Participants listen to classical or instrumental music in a quiet room. Then, a lovely voice

says: “Breathe, and feel the music in your heart.” After this short meditation, students go to their

different classes; for example, guitar, piano lessons, or hip-hop. They learn about instruments and

music theory. Finally, students have the opportunity to compose songs and play in a band. As

Nietzsche said: “Without music, life would be a mistake.”

The participants listen to classical or instrumental music in a quiet room

How do you feel when you listen to music? Write about another cultural

expression that you enjoy and describe it

Answer:

Music not only helps me relax before and after studying but, even while studying, some instrumental music in the background helps me to better my concentration.

Explanation:

I also enjoy singing. Not only it allows me to relax between lessons, but it´s also a great way to vent frustrations, as choosing songs with lyrics that make me feel empowered gives me the impulse I need to keep working.

There are three (3) main articles used in English language and these are;

1. An: it is a word that is mainly used before words beginning with any of the vowel letters (a, e, i, o and u). It's an indefinite article used for modifying non-specific (unspecific) nouns.

2. A: it is mainly used with consonant sounds or letters. It's an indefinite article used for modifying non-specific (unspecific) nouns.

3. The: it is a definite article used before nouns or superlative adjectives to indicate uniqueness.
