Rather than present an idealized version of nature, Whitman expresses an unusual insight about nature in his poem "This Compost." Which statement best summarizes that insight?

Hello. You forgot to enter the answer options. The options are:

Nature produces clean beauty from the rotting bodies of dead humans.

Nature can hurt us through the poison in the earth, air, and water.

Nature appears deceptively safe when actually it is quite dangerous.

Nature's cycles are just like a human's life cycle.

Nature produces clean beauty from the rotting bodies of dead humans.

Explanation:

In "This Compost," Whitman shows an alternative view of nature that we rarely find in poems. He shows that nature, in addition to being beautiful, is a large deposit of cadavers, which is in stark contrast to the idealized view of nature that poets propose to us. In this poem, the poet decided to portray, death, rot and decay of what dies and is left on earth, which even before that, manages to produce life, beauty and fruit.

the correct answer is option d. none of these. it is noted that options a, b, and c share the same content.

despite the valid answer provided at the last sentence of each of the options, a question/answer format shouldn't include humourous themed responses such as "you bet your thermal pj's we do." - unless of course, the answer is carried out in an informal environment. this could be replaced with a simple "yes" or "it is necessary".

the question should be re-phrased to a more appropiate syntaxis. instead of "do we need the greenhouse effect? ", it should be written as "is the greenhouse effect necessary? " in order to give it a general scope, instead of limiting the answer to the needs of "we" the humans.
