Hi lovely,
The answer you're looking for would be B)
Are there any answer choices that go along with this question?
Answer:
You’re asking how to avoid something that’s unavoidable. Two things which are not avoidable are death and taxes. Everything else is pretty much susceptible to change or adjustment. Though scientists are now working hard to postpone the death situation through enhancing longevity of humans, so there’s just one thing left (taxes).
Answer:
A. to show that cleaning the room will be a huge task.
Explanation:
We do not know what poem this is referring to, but this poet uses a simile or metaphor. This is a type of figurative language and is not meant to be "taken literally." This rules out options C and D because there is not an <em>actual</em> elephant.
While B could still be an answer, the narrator could have cleaned up their room once before without it feeling like a big task. Since they chose to compare it to an elephant specifically, we can guess that the answer will be "A. to show that cleaning the room will be a huge task."
