Question

Which of the following best identifies a theme of the text?

Nature’s first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold. Her early leaf’s a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So Dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.



A. It is dangerous to forget that we will die at some point
B. The most beautiful moments in life is brief
C. Love is unpredictable and inconsistent
D. Perfection and paradise are unattainable

Answer 1

Answer:

B. The most beautiful moments in life are brief

Explanation:

Because the text is basically telling about how the early leaf is gold, but it doesn't last for long. And how when the sun rises it's a beautiful golden hue, but we all know the moment usually lasts a couple minutes. The last line says nothing gold can stay which means nothing beautiful lasts very long, meaning the most beautiful moments are brief.

I hope this helped. :)
