I would say that the statement which is correct about the differences between short stories and novels is A. an effective short story is carefully crafted to achieve its purpose with fewer words than is a novel.
Novels are usually quite long, and you don't have to limit yourself to any number of words, whereas with short stories, you have to think about how many words you will use, and use them effectively.

Hello,
The way to find the meaning of a word within a passage is to look at the context of the passage as a whole. This stanza from “Invictus” follows a pattern.
The speaker is saying; despite all of these adversities, “I am the captain of my soul.” So, if we take out the line with “strait” in it and replace it with the options above, which ones makes the most sense as something that the narrator would have to OVERCOME?
It matters not how UPRIGHT the gate,
It matters not how CLEAN the gate,
It matters not how FORMAL the gate,
It matters not how NARROW the gate,
Which one of these is a gate which would make it more difficult for the speaker to pass through? That’s your answer.
I would say the poem's mood is positive. He says he has tried several times to kill himself but no matter what he does he decides to make an excuse and not go with it. Stating no matter how bad things get he will go on living, because that's why he was born. That's why everyone was born, to live.
Hope this helped, Have a great day!
