How does the theme of "the tide rises, the tide falls" develop as the poem moves forward?
the poem starts with an indication of inevitability and ends on a note of transcendence.
the poem begins by suggesting that humans live in harmony with nature, then contradicts itself by the end.
the poem’s overall theme changes from one that indicates an awe of nature to one that conveys a fear of it.
the natural imagery is developed throughout to indicate that nature continues long after humans do.

The right answer is the last one: The natural imagery is developed throughout to indicate that nature continues long after humans do. The theme of this poem by the renowned American poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807-1882) is about the unavoidable passage of time for humans and the repetitive essence and continuity of nature, which, unlike the former (who, as the traveler in the poem, one day stop going back to the shore) is endlessly rising, falling, and returning, like the tide. The elements from nature that are mentioned in the poem - the tide, the sea, the waves - are beautifully personified by Longfellow, making the comparison between the temporality of human life and the permanency of nature even more poignant.

The Correct Answer is D) The natural imagery is developed throughout to indicate that nature continues long after humans do.

Explanation:

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
