Through my research I found questions similar to this with matching options:
A) modeling
B) perpetuity
C)productivity
D)mentoring
The correct answer to end this sentence would be the first option: modeling.
Are these the lines you were referring to?
<span>1)Then, upon the velvet sinking, I betook myself to linking
Fancy unto fancy, thinking what this ominous bird of yore
2)This I sat engaged in guessing, but no syllable expressing
To the fowl whose fiery eyes now burned into my bosom's core
3)But whose velvet violet lining with the lamp-light gloating o'er,
She shall press, ah, nevermore
4)Then, methought, the air grew denser, perfumed from an unseen censer
Swung by seraphim whose foot-falls tinkled on the tufted floor
5)Respite—respite and nepenthe from thy memories of Lenore!
Quaff, oh quaff this kind nepenthe, and forget this lost Lenore!"
The answer would then be 3 and 5.
The lines of choice 3 is referring to the velvet violet lining of the cushion where Lenore used to sit. He remembers that Lenore will no longer sit on that cushion again.
The lines of choice 5 on the other hand refers to the part where he was having delusions. The imaginary smell he supposed was nepenthe, which in mythology was a drink or a potion that helps one forget. He claimed it must be a scent sent by God to help him forget Lenore.

Well, we can eliminate B because there are very few plays where they read out the stage directions. This play just by reading it wouldn't be one of them. So, B is now eliminated.
C can be eliminated too. The volume seems to stay calm throughout all of the passage.
D I feel we can eliminate too.
Therefore A is your best answer.
Hope this helps!

Read Identity, by Julio Noboa
How does the speaker’s description of flowers develop the meaning of the poem?
The speaker views the existence of flowers as more limited than the life of a weed.
The speaker views the existence of flowers as more free than the life of a weed.
The speaker views the existence of flowers as an appreciation to humans.
The speaker views the existence of flowers as an inconvenience to humans.
Answer: The speaker views the existence of flowers as more limited than the life of a weed.
Explanation:
As the title indicates, identity is the main theme of this poem, as well as the freedom of maintaining one´s individuality.
Polanco presents the life of flowers as limited in the sense that they are bound to a pot that restrains them, and they grow surrounded by other identical flowers. This could be a metaphor about those who obey the commands of a constraining society.
Unlike flowers, a weed, although ugly and foul-smelling, grows free, such as a person who preserves individual freedoms.
