The correct answer is the second one “an absence of love or passion.” In the poem, the general intention of the author is to describe his feelings about the love/passion that it is leaving his life. The sentence “dead leaves and snow”, is the way in which he introduces the absence feeling that he is going through. The birds, as well as the leaves of the tree, are metaphors of love, which are abandoning the tree (his life).

Explanation:
The info graphic refers the years 1400 to 1775 as a "great age" as it was the period of witch hunting all over the world.
<u>Explanation:</u>
During the early 1400, many got into witchcraft and went into absurd extreme things, and this was put to an end from 1400 to 1775. The info graphic refers the years 1400 to 1775 as a "great age" as it was the period of witch hunting all over the world.
From the country Russia to the Bermuda and from Scotland to the coastline Brazil, the witch hunt was fierce. Many were taken in pursuit, like nearly 100,000 were put under the legal action of the government and nearly 50,000 were sentenced to death as their punishment.
Many were hanged both women and men and many were pressed to death cause of the disaster they did to many families especially in small families.
1. What I saw in the closet left me speechless.
= subject
Here, the noun clause is <em>What I saw in the closet. </em>This clause is used as the subject of the sentence. So, you can replace the entire clause with one simple word - <em>he. </em>For example: <em>He left me speechless. </em>This way you can easily determine that the first word (or rather the entire clause in the example above) is the subject.
2. When I was six, I learned how to swim.
= direct object
The noun clause here is <em>How to swim. </em>Even though this may look like an adverbial clause, it is not because it has the function of a direct object (which only noun clauses can). You can easily determine that this is a direct object by asking the question - <em>what? </em>For example: <em>What did I learn when I was six? </em>And the answer is: <em>How to swim. </em>This way you know it is an object.
3. I was caught between what my conscience was telling me and what I wanted to do.
= object of a preposition
Here, the noun clauses are <em>What my conscience was telling me and what I wanted to do. </em>They are objects, but not regular objects (like in sentence 2 above). Given that they are located after the preposition <em>between, </em>they are called object of a preposition.
4. The scary movie I watched is what kept me awake that night.
= predicative nominative
Predicative nominative is a word, phrase, or an entire clause following a linking verb (such as to be, to seem, etc.). In the example above, the linking verb is <em>IS, </em>and the clause following it <em>What kept me awake that night </em>is the predicative nominative.
