QUESTION:Which choice best captures the meaning of the phrase “and you’ll bargain with the calendar,” which appears in the part of “Courage” that deals with old age?

A. You will notice time passing more quickly. B. You will look forward to the coming of spring.C. You will resign yourself to impending death. D. You will hope and strive to live a bit longer.

ANSWER: D. You will hope and strive to live a bit longer.

To bargain with the calendar means, you will hope and strive to live a bit longer. Calendar represents time or the passing of time. Towards the end of life, people tend to regret the time they have wasted and the things they have left undone; thus, this expression is both a prediction and a warning.

C. The rhyme gives the poem an even rhythm and maintains the tension.

Explanation:

1. None of the other options give as much tension as these lines do. The anticipation and reptition of the lines intensify the action of approaching a chamber door.

2. I feel as though the other options don't quite work as well as this one. A rhyme doesnt necessarily make a poem easier to remember, lines that are more 'significant' is just subjective, and each rhyme doesnt necessarily end an idea.

Answer: C. Squealer's speech mocks the obvious lies of political propaganda.

A satire mocks or makes fun of different aspects of social behavior. Option C is the best option because it is the only one that actually follows the definition of making fun of an aspect of society. The political propaganda being spewed by Squealer shows how the politicians twist and turn things into lies to convince the public to take action for or against something.
