b. the body of Hector was burned in a funeral fire.

I believe the answer is: d. the death of Hector meant the end of Troy.

From the excerpt, we can infer that after hearing hector's death, the people of troy has lost the ray of hope that They hold. The town soon become gloomy and depressed and all people are losing their spirit to continue fighting. This meant the end of Troy.

The simile "like the clamor to be heard if Ilion's towers, top to bottom, seethed in flames" suggests that C. Priam's groan was louder than the roar of the flames.
He definitely did not set fire to the town - he started crying because his son, Hector, was killed.

1. In the poem Nothing Gold Can Stay, How<br>is the poem organized?​
maxonik [38]

Nothing Gold Can Stay was the reflection of the seasonal cycle of nature. The poem though a short one symbolizes what a Mother Nature cannot hold for long the 'Gold' but respects its value/worth.

Explanation:

In this poem, Robert Frost brings out the deep meaning of how few things that are of high value/worth are not treated properly/not respected for their worth. He talks about how Nature (In the poem, he keeps referring it as 'Her') being the Mother of all subjects on Earth.

He starts explaining about the season with a leaf, its color and how it slowly transforms into a bud, turns into a flower and then eventually, a fruit. This cycle, Frost writes in the most metaphorical way for readers to understand what we need to take an advantage of and what we must value, accordingly.

This poem is a classic example of how humans forget what is worthy as we can find it everywhere and look out for things that we do not have in our surroundings.
