Answer:

B. Namely

Explanation:

The conjunctive adverb <em>namely </em>is the best choice here because it connects the vague noun "something sweet" with the clause that turns that noun into something more specific (strawberries). While all the other options are grammatically eligible, none of them makes sense in connecting these independent clauses with a semicolon (which implies a very close connection in meaning).

In his poem "Easter, 1916," does Yeats favor either side in the conflict? If so, which side does he favor? If not, how does he a
Dominik [7]
Yeats states that he was not closely acquainted with the people in the Easter Rising. He acknowledges that he only exchanged pleasantries with them before the uprising. He also indicates that he has personal reasons for disliking one person. So he is writing about the cause for which they stood, which, by inference, is important.

The comparison of the rebels to "stone" suggests that Yeats may have viewed the rebels' attitude as inflexible or not adapted to the changing times. Yeats also acknowledges the possibility that their deaths may have been "needless" because the British might keep their promises.

However, his reference to the "sacrifice" (of all who had supported Irish independence) and the rebels' "excess of love" suggest that he views their cause in a positive light. Moreover, Yeats's repeated description of the kind of change that the uprising has brought about as "a terrible beauty" suggests that his sympathies lie with the rebels.

To summarize, Yeats places a certain distance between the rebels and himself, but he supports the rebels' cause.
