Hold fast to dreams; For if dreams die; Life is a broken-
winged bird; That cannot fly. Hold fast to dreams; For when dreams go; Life
is a barren field; Frozen with snow.*

In the first and fifth lines of the poem—"Hold fast to dreams"—the speaker uses a metaphor to compare dreams to something tangible, something to which a person could actually hold on tightly. Next, dreams are personified and given the human attribute of being able to die in the second line of the poem. In lines three and four, a metaphor compares life to "a broken-winged bird / That cannot fly": all of these devices portray dreams as something incredibly important, even absolutely vital, to one's ability to live a fulfilling life. Hughes suggests that a dream can permanently go away, that it can fatally, finally disappear. Then, it can leave a person like a bird without wings: going nowhere and unable to do what one is meant to do. Another metaphor compares life to "a barren field / Frozen with snow" (lines 7–8). Nothing grows in such a field, just like a person cannot grow, it seems, without dreams. Their life becomes empty and cold.

i would say c, admiration because the narrator related to the main character and she, too, once felt ashamed about her culture and wished to be an american girl to impress a boy. she felt admiration because her mom prepared her favorite foods when her and robert's (the guy she liked) family all came together and had a family reunion.

all of the statements cuz
