I believe the correct answer is: approaching.

 

     In this excerpt from the poem "Learning to Read" written by Frances Ellen Watkins Harper, the meaning of the word rising is approaching. The subject of this poem is Aunt Chloe, representing all elderly former slaves in order to convey the value of literacy to blacks during and after slavery as a key to freedom. Aunt Chloe wants to learn to read in order to read the Bible, and as she was approaching sixty years, she had to “hurry”. To achieve that:


"So I got a pair of glasses,

 And straight to work I went,

 And never stopped till I could read

 The hymns and Testament.

 

 Then I got a little cabin

 A place to call my own—

 And I felt independent

 As the queen upon her throne."

2. Besides literature, what are some other things we might spend time comparing?
zloy xaker [14]

A sort of action known as entertainment keeps a crowd's interest or provides pleasure and delight.

It can be a task or an idea, but it's more likely to be one of the things that have evolved over thousands of years expressly to retain people's attention.

Although diverse things capture people's attention since everyone has distinct preferences, most forms of entertainment are recognisable and well-known.

All cultures have storytelling, music, theatre, dance, and other forms of performance, which were encouraged in regal courts, evolved into complex forms, and eventually were accessible to all people.

A modern entertainment business that produces and sells entertainment goods has sped up the process.

Entertainment changes and can be tailored to fit any scale, from a single person choosing a private show from the vast selection of pre-recorded products available today to a banquet tailored for two, to any size or style of the party with the right music and dance, to performances intended for thousands, and even for a global audience.
