Answer:

B. Lost love

Explanation:

The fact that the centre-piece was a bride-cake tells us it is related to love. A marriage symbolizes the peak of love that a couple feels. In other words, the couple wants to see that love materialized in someway, the tradition is a marriage. As the cake is overhung with cobwebs we can infere that the wedding never took place, it's purpose was never achieved. The cobwebs represent all the time that has passed since the marriage was supposed to be realized. All the time the bride has been waiting, the hope that someday love will return to her life. We can say this because the cake is still in the middle of the table, it is a centre-piece, meaning it is still very important.

Answer:

Our Love Forever

The kiss we never shared

The hug that never happened

The goodbye that is now

In this world that always lets us down

I will love you forever

And never forget

The smile on your face

And when we first met

I love you

And I'm sorry

But I yearn for you

In every way

I wish I could have stayed

But this would have happened anyway

The times we never spent together

And the love we always shared

Was enough to light the flame

But not enough to keep it lit

I'll never forget you

Goodbye my love

djyliett [7]

Answer:

In my opinion, the correct  answer is clarity. By using the repetition, the author tries to clarify what this problem isn't - by its nature it isn't Negro, Southern, or Northern. And then, he affirms what it is - it is American. Therefore, he says that compartmentalizing this problem is not going to help. People have to understand it for what it really is - everyone's problem, the problem of the nation itself.
