Question

Imagine hearing an audio version of "The Rainy Day" accompanied by background noises. Which of the following should you LEAST expect to hear while listening to this version of the poem? o A. rain falling O B. wind howling O C. waves crashing о O D. leaves crunching​

Answer 1

Answer:

OD. Leaves crunching​.

Explanation:

The poem "The Rainy Day" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow is a short three-stanza poem that talks about a rainy day. The image that the poet presents is that of a dreary rainy day, with gusty winds and dead leaves.

Considering the poem is about a rainy day, the audio version will most probably be accompanied by the sounds of winds blowing, rains falling, and waves on the sea. The only noise that will be least expected will be the crunching sound of leaves, for they will be wet and not crunchy, more soggy and dead.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.
