B. It conveys the personal nature of the speaker’s journey.

In the poem the speaker details a horse drawn carriage as death picking her up to take her away. She rides along looking out of the carriage at the scenery. The speaker of the poem does not sound angry or lonely. Her journey with death is one that is matter of fact and not resisted. This tone eliminates options C and D. Also, the purpose of the carriage ride is to demonstrate the journey into death. This helps support the answer as B, along with the phrases "but just Ourselves" as including only the speaker and Death.

4. Analyze: How does Louv use contrasts—such as death and rebirth, broken and
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

Find the explanation below.

Explanation:

1. He drew the contrasts between death and rebirth when he explained that the contact which the new generation of children have with nature is dying. He explained that there is a possibility of a rebirth of wonder and joy where man can begin his meaningful interaction with nature.

Evidence from the text:

My sons may yet experience what author Bill McKibben has called "the end of nature," the final sadness of a world where there is no escaping man. But there is another possibility: not the end of nature, but the rebirth of wonder and even joy.

2. He drew a contrast between being broken and healing when he explained that the bond between the young and nature was broke. He also explained that nature did have a therapeutic effect as seen from some studies. Making it a point to heal the bond between the young people and nature would be beneficial to all.

Evidence from the text:

Yet, at the very moment that the bond is breaking between the young and the natural world, a growing body of research links our mental, physical, and spiritual health directly to our association with nature—in positive ways.

Reducing that deficit—healing the broken bond between our young and nature—is in our self-interest, not only because aesthetics or justice demands it, but also because our mental, physical, and spiritual health depends upon it.
