Answer:

Option A. Based on the excerpt, it can be inferred that the meaning of the poem is that the girl regrets not dating the men.

Explanation:

The Shih Ching, also known as The Book of Songs, is the oldest existing collection of Chinese poetry with works that go from the 11th to the 7th Century BC. "A Very Handsome Gentleman" is one of the poems in the collection, it talks about the angst and regret a young girl feels for having to turn down possible dating opportunities with men she found handsome and splendid. This topic is a highly relatable within the Chinese culture, as it is connected with following your family's orders and rules they set for you, even if they go against your own desires, as the girl expresses in the excerpt she wishes he uncles would let her go to the men's houses, implying that they do not in fact agree with her doing such a thing.

(In conclusion) 
There is little chance without putting in work that you'll actually succeed. <span />
