Answer:
I believe the theme of "Pastoral" is<u> </u><u>"adaptation." </u>
Explanation:
"Pastoral" is a poem written by <em>Jennifer Chang</em>, an American scholar and poet. The poem is part of her collection called<u> "The History of Anonymity."</u> It is a type of<em> lyrical poem</em> whereby the writer expresses her emotions through <u>nature</u>, such as<em> plants, fruits, grass, weeds, etc. </em>
The theme of Pastoral is<u> "adaptation."</u> It talks about <u><em>how nature adapts to what is happening in the surrounding environment.</em></u> For example, it mentioned <em>"Something in the field has mastered distance by living too close to fences."</em> This shows how such part of nature mastered its situation by living close to the fences.
The poem also shows how some cannot master such situation as it's mentioned in the end<em>, "Something in the field cannot." </em>This also shows "survival of the fittest." One example of this is<em> grass fighting with the weeds. </em>This happens when both fight for the nutrients in the soil. This is part of nature which they adapt to wherein only the strong one survives.

<em>The correct answer is B) The author attempts to portray Hanson as being dismissive of his wife, not seeing her as an equal partner</em>
- <em>B is the best analysis of the author’s intention. There is plenty of evidence in the excerpt to say that Hanson is dismissive of his wife. The first evidence is when Hanson interrupts his wife when she was going to explain Carrie how to get to the business part, he starts answering the question as if his wife was not even present at the moment. Another piece of evidence, is when Carrie asks her sister about the neighborhood and Minnie answers in a very insecure tone, showing that the way Hanson interrupted her had affect her disposition. Hanson treats his wife as if she knew nothing about the topic.</em>
