Answer:
Despair.
Explanation:
The two excerpts of poetry are from Maya Angelou's "The Caged Bird" and "Sonnet 29" by William Shakespeare. And both poems talk of suffering and freedom.
The use of the phrase <em>"grave of dreams"</em> shows the metaphorical bird's restricted life and desire to be free. Likewise., Shakespeare's poem also mentions the speaker's <em>"outcast state"</em> while <em>"troub[ling] deaf heaven with [his] bootless cries."</em> Both the poems talk of the despair and sadness of the speaker(s).

Answer:
b.I treasure the brooch, but it is not my most valued possessions.
Explanation:
The line is taken from Edna St. Vincent Millay's short elegy poem "The Courage that My Mother Had". The poem is included in the collection <em>"Mine the Harvest"</em> published in 1949, one year before the death of the poetess.
The line "I have no thing to treasure more:" shows that the poetess has nothing which she treasures more than the golden brooch, to simply mean that she treasures the golden brooch more than anything else.
The second line contrasts (also signified by the use of contrast word <em>"yet"</em>) what is described in the first part. Here she says that she could still spare the brooch, meaning, she could leave it, or let it go (if she could get her mother's courage in return). Hence option B is correct.
Option A and D are completely incorrect stating opposite of what the poetess says and means in the given lines.
Option C is incorrect because firstly there is no mention of courage in these lines, secondly because, in next lines of the poem, we come to know she values courage more than the brooch.
