Respuesta :

Answer:

Part A: C. it creates a vivid and constant impression

Part B: C. It emphasizes her loneliness

Explanation:

The repetition in the story doesn't hide the poet's feelings or make the mother seem like a strong character. Instead, it makes the mother seem weak and shows what the character really feels. It makes a constant, vivid impression of the author's thoughts.

These thoughts are those of loneliness, the author feels alone everytime that door is closed, and they represent that.

Part A: C. It creates a vivid and constant impression.
Part B: A. it shows how young she is.

I hope this helps!
