PLEASE HELP ME!!!


Read the stanza from "The Bat-Poet":


Curled at his breast, he sits there while the sun

Stripes the red west

With its last light: the chipmunk

Dives to his rest.



Which statement does not explain how the stanza helps create meaning in the poem?


AThe description of the sunset describes the coloration of the chipmunk

BThe image of the Chipmunk "dive [ing] to his rest" shows that the chipmunk is sluggish and unmotivated.

CThe line lengths vary, which suggests the chipmunk's movement: quickly running, then stopping and watching for danger.

DThe last lines explain that the chipmunk hides out from danger once the sun sets, shedding light on his behavior.

The answer would be C. because the stanza says nothing about the question to C.

The answer is: C. The line lengths vary, which suggests the chipmunk's movement: quickly running, then stopping and watching for danger.


When you read this stanza you can infer that the sunset reflect the color of the chipmunk fur, that when you imagine the chipmunk going to rest the picture shows her sluggish and unmotivated, because at sunset she hides from the danger, however none of this description shows the movement of the chipmunk, she actually start the stanza “Curled at his breast”.
