Answer:
The correct option is b: He uses imagery-based descriptions of the flowers that sprung up untended, and the New Yorkers’ reaction to them, creating a reflective tone
Explanation:
The correct option is b: He uses imagery-based descriptions of the flowers that sprung up untended, and the New Yorkers’ reaction to them, creating a reflective tone because the author is narrating literally how the New York’s park High Line started; to obtain and maintain the lector’s attention he links all the kind of flowers and plants that sprung up to the people's reaction to help him to imagine the scene, putting him, at the same time, as the level of the New Yorkers’ who lived that moment. We can see this narration mechanism in the second line, where all the flowers’ names are told: <em>“Wild crocuses, irises, evening primrose, asters, and Queen Anne’s lace”.</em>
<u>The first option, A. He uses metaphor to describe how an abandoned part of New York came to life</u>, is not operable because the author is not using any metaphor; in fact he is narrating an event that really happened; <u>C option: He uses simple language to describe the transformation of an abandoned rail yard to an oasis, creating an instructional tone</u> is not the correct one because he is not using simplistic language and we can see it, for example, in the mastery of writing that he has at the moment of linking the flowers’ species with the facts that happened; finally<u> D option: He uses fact-based descriptions of the abandoned New York railroad taken over by a variety of weed, creating a detached tone</u> isn't the correct one because the author is not incorporating facts like dates, people’s name or, who took the decision to make it a park, so it is hard to say that he used fact-based descriptions.

Answer:
Maud Gonne
Explanation:
William Butler Yeats proposed to Maud Gonne four times and on each occasion, was rejected by him. He proposed in the years; 1891, 1899, 1900, and 1901. Gonne was a young Irish nationalist/activist and part of the reason why she rejected Yeats was that he did not support her course. Moreso, she later became Catholic while Yeats remained protestant.
Even though they later consummated their relationship after Maud Gonne's marriage with Major John Macbride failed, Gonne was still unable to develop sufficient love that could lead to marriage with Yeats.
