The sensory details in the excerpt evoke a sense of...:


...awe and wonder.


There's description of mysterious lights, as well as flares and sparks. The adjective choices show awe and wonder: great, dead white, intense, white-hot, brilliant... Plus, there is a quite meaningful direct comparison here: "it seemed as though anything caught in their range would be made still, like figures in a game of living statues." The fact the author talks about "living statues" also shows awe and wonder.

Answer: B. One's endless hunger

Explanation:

In this poem titled "<em>The Coming of Night"</em>, the poet, Linda Pastan alludes to the end of life and the acceptance of it because a time will come when we will have to stop acting in a certain way and just accept that it is time to leave the world.

She speaks of how humans will lose not only the feeling of being ambitious but the endless hunger to acquire and conquer more as well by relating these to lights and flames that will go out or be extinguished.
