A. Despite the snowy and windy weather, a flock of young birds still manages to eat and survive.

Explanation:

The imagery in the poem is dark and depressing. Bare trees, snow, dark wind are all the signs of forthcoming death, which is imminent. But even though the landscape is described as cruel and unforgiving, the flock of birds is still cheeping, eating and piping. Their song is certainly not pleasant to the ears, their flying is not vivacious, but it exists - which is the most they can hope for.

read this passage from the crisis. what rationale is paine using for going to war with great britain? my own line of reasoning is to myself as straight and clear as a ray of light. not all the treasures of the world, so far as i believe, could have induced me to support an offensive war, for i think it murder; but if a thief breaks into my house, burns and destroys my property, and kills or threatens to kill me, or those that are in it, and to "bind me in all cases whatsoever" to his absolute will, am i to suffer it? what signifies it to me, whether he who does it is a king or a common man; my countryman or not my countryman; whether it be done by an individual villain, or an army of them? if we reason to the root of things we shall find no difference; neither can any just cause be assigned why we should punish in the one case and pardon in the other.
