A NATION OF THE FREE AND THE BRAVE
Hello. You forgot to enter the answer options. The options are:

Nature can hurt us through the poison in the earth, air, and water.
Nature appears deceptively safe when actually it is quite dangerous.
Nature's cycles are just like a human's life cycle.
Answer:
Nature produces clean beauty from the rotting bodies of dead humans.
Explanation:
In "This Compost," Whitman shows an alternative view of nature that we rarely find in poems. He shows that nature, in addition to being beautiful, is a large deposit of cadavers, which is in stark contrast to the idealized view of nature that poets propose to us. In this poem, the poet decided to portray, death, rot and decay of what dies and is left on earth, which even before that, manages to produce life, beauty and fruit.

Diary entry recording an experience after visiting a traditional village fair.

Dear Diary,
Once, our whole family had gone on a vacation to the northeast states. And on one occasion, my father took me and my younger sister to a traditional village fair which was our very first experience attending any such fairs. It was more than I had imagined. The whole ground was full of people moving along, with stalls erected in all corners. The stalls have toys, food, clothing, necessities, and even handmade bamboo products. While the fun and activities part was on another side of the huge ground, I was more into the crafts and wooden products. I asked around for the price, thinking that they'll be too costly and I wouldn't probably have it in me to buy them. But to my surprise, they were so cheap, compared to how things are in my home city of Delhi. I asked my father to buy me so many things that I had to make choices.
Moreover, the one most surprising thing was the friendliness and openness of the village people in helping others, even strangers. They knew we were from out of town and made sure that we are safe, and immediately tried their best to help, even by the old women who couldn't speak English. While their native language was foreign to us, that did not stop them from voicing their concern.
My sister got so many traditional dolls, toys, and other art crafts. I think this was the one time we got ourselves so many things. But it was such a wonderful experience being there, and I don't regret ever spending time or money there.
I only hope I can go there again next year.
Here's hoping for that.
Love,
Sneha.
