Answer:

D. In Brueghel's Icarus, for instance: how everything turns

Quite worriedly toward the disaster

Explanation:

Brueghel's Icarus refers to a painting made by Pieter Brueghel, which puts the spotlight on the townsmen who were around during Icarus' mythological fall from the sky since he flew too close to the sun. It depicts the indifference of the witnesses, who were busy engaging with their pursuits to bother paying attention to the fact that Icarus had just fallen. Since Auden's poem is written in honor of the painting, (D) would be the best answer if the painting instead depicted the witnesses' concern over what is happening instead of indifference.

GaryK [48]

The statement that best explains why Shakespeare has Cassius use the word <em>fawn</em> rather than a synonym such as <em>flatter</em> to describe his actions is the A: Fawn is more negative, suggesting manipulation of another for personal gain. In the excerpt that this question is referring to, the shrewd Cassius is going to reveal some aspects of Brutus's personality, or of his behavior, that he cannot see, and he asks him to trust in him, unless he saw him flattering somebody and then slandering him on their back; in that case, Cassius concludes, Brutus could be suspicious of him. Shakespeare is using the word <em>fawn </em>in Cassius's speech in order to emphasize his manipulative and devious traits. The word does have a negative connotation, and it often implies disapproval of that person's actions.
