<u>Answer</u>:

B: “And the lovely blue isn't even blue, is it? isn't even there, is it?"

This detail helps illustrate the author's point in "Against Nature".

<u>Explanation</u>:

The story “Joyce Carol Oates” states that nature doesn’t give any instructions for humans. Joyce is not against nature in her story, but she questions about her own existence and she thinks she doesn’t exist.

Oates suffered from cardiac attack and while she is lying down on her back, she goes through a thought process. Her mind roams around and Oates uses imagery to depict what is going on around her. She searches the area around her, talks about the nature.

This line shows that Oates is trying to say that nature has connection with no spiritual truth as she is even questioning the color of the blue sky that whether that is also true or not.

Shalnov [3]

In the short stories "A Good Man is hard to Find" and "The Petrified Man", the authors use effective descriptions of the settings, they use all the senses to graphically describe the scenes and situations. The kind of description both  utilize include visual, auditory, smell, touch or tactile and at times taste. The style in their narrative gives the reader a complete experience and understanding of the background and setting.

This is all for the poem "To His Coy Mistress" They're all short answers.
serg [7]
<span>1) The speaker pleads with his mistress to let him touch her and to lose her virginity to him.
  2) She is being coy because they aren't married, and being sexually involved with him would stain her honor as a woman.
  3) If they lived for eons, it would be OK for her to put him off. He would use the eons to love her from a distance. But their lives are short. Therefore, she should enjoy physical love with him.
  4) Vegetable love wouldn't be physically active like an animal; it would grow in one place instead.
  5) "Like amorous birds of prey, rather at once our time devour" describes a fierce, active, physical love.
 6) "Roll all our strength and all our sweetness up into one ball" suggests they should be so close they are one.
 7) "Deserts of vast eternity" don't contain any physical satisfaction.
 8) The sun stands for time. Time will pass and they will die; they have no control over that. This is expressed by "we cannot make our sun stand still". 9) The poet urges her to "carpe diem" or "seize the day".
  10) Acting on physical desire means being truly alive for him.</span>

(MC) Read the following excerpt from the article "Vision, Voice and the Power of Creation: An Author Speaks Out," by T. A. Barro
lesya692 [45]
The author explicitly says that spirit can be found in the voice of a character. 
Explicitly means directly - so it means that the author didn't hide the fact that he knew what could be found in the voice.
Here is what he says:
<em>That is wholly appropriate, for in the breath—the voice—of a character lies its essential spirit.</em>
So the correct answer is definitely spirit.
