b) making a list of poets will remind him that he needs to read other authors too.
c) creating a list of poets will force him to pay closer attention in class.
d) having a list of poets will him choose a topic for his essay.

The correct answer is d.

Explanation:

Having a list of poets will help you choose, first, a poet and then the main theme, the thesis, of your essay. Taking into account more poets, what it allows is to be able to distinguish the different concepts of each one and also to have a wider reference about what the poets say. It is always important to keep poetry authors in mind so that the author's name remains in society and people can know and enjoy it.

the servant does not kill the child oedipus as he was ordered to do because "he pitied the child" based on the oedipus rex story. the servant was ordered to kill the child because of the prophecy that predicted king laius' death. the king already had attempted to hurt oedipus by piercing oedipus's ankle. however, the servant did not finish the job and he rather saved the baby oedipus.

explanation:

wordsworth tends to see nature as 'out there'; a presence which surrounds humans, and contributes to human life, but is different from humans. if you look at a typical wordsworth poem (there was a boy, ye knew him well ye rocks) - wordsworth talks about nature as something that needs to be learned about and understood, nature is different from us.  

if you look at a byron poem (the isles of greece is a good one) - byron looks at nature mainly for what it already means to man. wordsworth will look at a landscape and see the mountains, trees, valleys, and rivers as almost spiritual presences - wordsworth wants to get to know nature.  

byron will look at the same landscape and he will want to know who lives there, what are the villages? are there any farms or mines, is there some history?  

wordsworth looks at nature for what it is; byron is forever asking what it means.  

wordsworth thinks that humans are part of nature; byron thinks that nature is part of being human
