Answer:
The central idea of the poem Our Generation is to show that today's generation of adolescents and children is not lost, and that they can get ahead if the things they are doing wrong are reversed.
Explanation:
The poem <em>Our Generation</em> was written by a 14-year-old girl named Jordan Nichols.
The peculiarity of this poem is that when we begin to read it, it narrates everything bad that the current generation of children has. It describes a generation that doesn't care about anything and doesn't want to fight to change it. Basically it describes everything that older people think of this generation. But when we get to the end of the poem there are some lines that say: "Read from bottom to top now".
Read it from bottom to top the poem changes completely. Show how this girl really sees her generation. A fighting generation, which can change all the bad they have if they set their mind to it.
I believe the answer is A (fear) or if you wrote the answers in a different order A,B,C,or D but the answer will be fear because in the excerpt is says:''I was stunned'' and it also says ''<span>How could we let Father go to such a fate?''
