Answer 2

The way the Squirrel responds to the Mountain shows that she is- Option (c) humble and logical

• The above context is from the poem, 'The mountain and the squirrel' written by Ralph Waldo Emerson.
• The poem is about two characters, a huge mountain and a little squirrel.
• The mountain and the squirrel fight with each other one day, about their importance on this planet.
• The mountain, being boastful said that it carries forests over its back, and calls the squirrel a little creature who does not have as much worth living.
• The squirrel agrees with the mountain that it is indeed huge and vast, but that the squirrel's size has nothing to do with its importance on the planet. This shows us the humbleness of the squirrel.
• The squirrel tells the mountain that it is not as quick as the squirrel and cannot crack a nut like it.
• The poem is teaching us that nobody on this planet is created to be superior or inferior.
• We all have different talents which are useful one way or the other in our existence.
