Answer:
B. He wanted to make the poem more concise and direct.
Explanation:
Ezra Pound wrote a 30-line poem where he narrated his experience in a Paris metro station but he discarded this version because he did not like it.
Much later, he again tried narrating his experience, this time making the narration shorter than the first, but he again discarded it.
Finally, after reading Japanese hiakus, Mr. Pound finally wrote his experience in a two-line version that has now become immensely popular because of its length.
So, he reduced his poem from a 30-lined one to two lines because he wanted to make the poem more concise and direct.
Answer:

Answer:
The correct answer is <u>C</u>: the fact that this is the first day Ryan has ever been turkey hunting.
Explanation:
At the beginning of the excerpt, the author mentions that this is the first day Ryan has ever been turkey hunting. After describing the setting (when he got up, where they went, what they did, etc.), the author mentions again the fact that Ryan has never been turkey hunting and says this is his first time. Therefore, it should be removed from the second part of the excerpt.
