Answer 2

Answering the above questions based on the chapter "freedom for birds":

The poem "freedom for birds" is written by Jenny Moxham. In this poem, she has described the life of a bird (here a cockatoo) head captive or who was kept in a cage. This poem illustrates how a caged bird wanted to be free and fly with the other birds in the sky. Here, it describes the feeling of a caged bird on how it felt being captivated.

(A) In the cage the bird felt lonely and sad because it had nothing to do in the cage. As it was alone in the small cage it felt boring.

(B) The meaning of the following sentences according to the poet are:

1. "Each day is the same with the very same view"- By the sentence, the poet explains that the caged bird felt that each day was the same as the previous because it was in the same cage with nothing to do and felt the same boredom and loneliness every day. Each day it felt how unlucky was it to be held captive while the other cockatoos have their home in the tall forest trees surrounding nature.
2. "Swirling and twirling in glorious play"- By this phrase, the poet says that the bird feels the happiness it is deprived of. It feels the pain of how other birds are free to fly and swirl around happily, while it couldn't enjoy the glorious play of flying freely and twirling around in nature without any restrictions or any captivity.

(C) The bird longed to fly freely with the others of its kind in the open sky and feel the cool breeze.

(D) Three characteristics about the stranger who passed by in the poem:

1. She was kind-hearted.
2. She had humanity as she felt the pain of the bird and longed to free it.
3. She was gentle and pure as even after years she wanted the rehabilitation of the bird to the forest.

(E) The central idea of the poem is how the poet wants to convey the message to the human beings that how it feels to be captive. He describes how every object in this universe has its kind of freedom and everyone needs their freedom to be happy.
