SUBMIT

B. The people on the shore ignore Icarus falling into the water.

Explanation:

The myth of "Icarus and Daedalus" by Ovid tells the story of a captive father Daedalus, an inventor inventing ways for him and his son Icarus to escape from their captivity on an island. But in the heat of the moment, the young son went too near to the sun which melted the wax in his wings and eventually led him to drown in the sea below.

W. H. Auden's poem "Musée des  Beaux Arts" also recounts the moment Icarus drowned. But what the short poem details is somewhat a bit different from the mythical story in that Auden describes the people nearby the sea, completely ignorant or indifferent to the drowning boy's plight.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.
