The correct answer is B.

In the story, the white woman is awfully excited to meet Walter Williams, a colored singer whom she likes. However, while talking to her host, she constantly remarks that she does not have feelings for him, being that he is a black man.

Still, when she finally meet him, she gets very nervous, cuts herself while talking and interrups him when he tries to answer any of her questions.

After their conversation ends, he tells her host that she though he was a nice man, and that she liked him. But, again, she strongly remarks that she has no feelings for him.

A reference to Walt Whitman's "I Hear America Singing" => "I, Too". Langston Hughes' poem adds the African American identity to Whitman's list of ordinary people who constitute and contribute to American collective identity.

Paradox of social injustice => "I, Too". Hughes depicts the social inequality of black people, who are traditionally confined to servitude. He hopes, however, that this will change eventually.

Uses set meter and rhyme scheme => "From the Dark Tower". The poem's rhyme scheme is ABBA.

Symbol of wasted effort => "From the Dark Tower". Black people are the ones who plant, while white people reap.

Stone of anger and resentment => "From the Dark Tower". It depicts black people's anger at being constantly and systematically oppressed.

Uses free verse => "I, Too". Hughes' poem has a conversational tone. The free verse depicts the inner freedom that the speaker feels, and wants to transform into real freedom and equality.
