Answer: The motif addressed in both forms of poetry is nature.
Explanation: A Motif is a symbolism that is repeated throughout the poem in different forms. The poem "Wine of the Fairies" by Percy Bysshe Shelley, and the majority of the haikus (Japanese poems) by Buson, use the motifs of nature and fantasy, mentioning fairies, flowers, seasons, and more. We can see this in the haiku "Natsukawa wo/ Kosu ureshisa yo/ Te ni zori", by Buson, where we can see verses such as:
The summer river.
It’s happy to walk across it.
My hands with zori sandal.
Likewise, in "Wine of the Fairies" Shelley describes his love for these elements when being drunk in the lines: "Which fairies catch in hyacinth bowls." "And when ’tis spilt on the summer earth", "Of the fairies bear those bowls so new!"
Answer:
C
Explanation:
For A and B, the passage never says anything about a negative situation so those are ruled out.
For D, the speaker does not necessarily describe the setting though they do show excitement so that is ruled out.
C is the only one because the speaker mentions postcards and pictures and fact that they do no justice for the scenery before him.
Answer:
I’d never believe the day I would find someone so kind like this one person. On a Sunday morning I decided to go to a park for some fresh air, as I got there I noticed a puppy who looked homeless. As I took a closer look I saw a stranger walk up to the puppy and give it some food and water, it was a small gesture but it must’ve meant a lot to the puppy. Not many people do that in my town so I could tell that the stranger had a heart of gold! I’ve never found such a kind person ever since.
