Answer:

Spiritual Pursuit

Explanation:

W.B. Yeats' poem "When You Are Old" is an address to Irish revolutionary and actress, Maud Gonne. She repeatedly declined Yeats' love and eventually married another man. The poem comprises poet’s eternal love for his beloved.

Yeats’ diction here is worth contemplating as 'Pilgrim soul' is an unusual phrase to describe a woman's soul. Pilgrim refers to a person embarked on the spiritual or religious journey in greater pursuits. It also means a person who wanders, which may be referred to Yeats pursuit of Maud Gonne to the very depths of her soul, is in itself a spiritual journey. Pilgrim soul has a spiritual resonance. He loved her for the unique qualities she has.

Answer:

C. It shows that the speaker loves the subject for who they truly are.

Explanation:

The question above refers to the poem "When You Are Old" where the speaker describes how much he loves a certain woman. The speaker of the poem describes how many men loved this woman for the beauty they displayed in their youth, but he loved her for her pilgrim soul, that is, she loved her for what she really was, within her soul. For that reason, he continued to love her even when her face started to age.

How does life in exile affect Frithiof?
Ira Lisetskai [31]
I believe the correct answer is: He adopts the life of a pirate, becoming rich by stealing from others. 
     In this excerpt from “The Story of Frithiof the Bold” written by William Morris, the life in exile make Frithiof, a great hero, adopt to the life of a pirate, becoming rich by stealing from others, after the incident in the temple of Balder:
     “So Frithiof became an exile, and the wanderer on the face of earth. For many years he lived the life of a pirate or Viking, exacting tribute from other ships or sacking them if they would not pay the tribute.”

Compare and contrast letter to a young refugee from another and farewell to manzanar
abruzzese [7]

Letter to a Young Refugee from another and Farewell to Manzanar are both stories about struggles of families inside a refugee camp for the former and internment camp for the latter. In the “Letter to a Young refugee” which took place in Guam after the Vietnam war, Lam addresses another refugee he saw in the news to relate his previous experience. The theme is more like, “I know what you are going through.”

In “Farewell to Manzanar”, the main character went back to the old camp in Manzanar much later in her life to reflect on what used to be her life there as a displaced Japanese in America.
