I manage my screen time by creating new habits and distracting myself from using my cellphone so much. I try working on homework or listening to music, going on runs to the park and helping my mom tiding up the house.

C. illustrates the strong feelings associated with the poem's subject matter.
Explanation:
This excerpt was taken from part XXIII of Derek Walcott's "Midsummer". Born in 1930 in Saint Lucia, Walcott received several awards for his works, including the Nobel Prize. He passed away in 2017.

It is quite powerful to compare a season to a riot and its violence. As a matter of fact, as the poem goes on, the author continues to do so. He compares, for instance, leaves and branches to cattle being whipped. All of that unusual comparison aims to illustrate the author's feelings toward his subject matter, which is clearly quite strong.
