Answer 2

Answer:

The speaker fears that if he has no money, he would depend on his pitiful circumstances to survive by eating dirt. (Option c)

Explanation:

• This is an excerpt from the work Money Madness by D. H. Lawrence.
• As the title suggests, the poem reflects the theme of financial insanity.
• Money madness destroys a person's humanity.
• Money can bring insanity from which one cannot escape.
• According to the poet, the urge for money is the cause of destruction in society.
• It makes the man lose his dignity.
• It makes one cruel to his own brothers.
• If a man is without money, he has no value on this earth and is forced to eat dirt.
• And therefore, man is always afraid, and preserves every penny that he earns.
• The poet suggests that this situation can be changed if bread, shelter, and fire are easily accessible to man.
• If one cannot access even these basic necessities, humanity will begin to kill one another.
