1. You can see through the comparison to a mountain, that the grandpa is tall and always there 'looming' (hovering) over the speaker. You can see that the speaker does not speak much around his grandpa, as he is "silent as a stone".
2. These details show that the speaker is impressed by his grandpa and looks up to him the way a stone would look up to a mountain-it shows that he hopes one day he will grow to be like his grandpa.
3. The theme of this poem is shown through the way the speaker looks at his grandpa and the shed. The shed needs more than paint because it is so old, which relates to his grandpa and the theme of growing older.

The correct answer is (D). In the poem “Lochinvar” by Sir
Walter Scott the Lochinvar's offering to dance with Ellen on her wedding day is crucial for the outcome of the
poem. On the day of Ellen’s wedding Lochinvar came to see Ellen again and have
a chance to be with her. Lochinvar asks her for the dance and while they are
dancing he proposes to her to run away with him and she accepts: “One touch to
her hand, and one word in her ear,/When they reach’d the hall-door, and the
charger stood near; /So light to the croupe the fair lady he swung, /So light
to the saddle before her he sprung!”
