Read the following poem and answer the question that follows. "O Captain! my Captain!" by Walt Whitman

O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done;
The ship has weather'd every rack, the prize we sought is won;
The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,
While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring:
But O heart! heart! heart!
O the bleeding drops of red,
Where on the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.

O Captain! my Captain! rise up and hear the bells;
Rise up—for you the flag is flung—for you the bugle trills;
For you bouquets and ribbon'd wreaths—for you the shores a—crowding;
For you they call, the swaying mass, their eager faces turning;
Here Captain! dear father!
This arm beneath your head;
It is some dream that on the deck,
You've fallen cold and dead.

My Captain does not answer, his lips are pale and still;
My father does not feel my arm, he has no pulse nor will;
The ship is anchor'd safe and sound, its voyage closed and done;
From fearful trip, the victor ship, comes in with object won;
Exult, O shores, and ring, O bells!
But I, with mournful tread,
Walk the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.

In which of the following excerpts from "the yellow wall paper" does author charlotte perkins gilman seem to mock the romantic belief in the supernatural? a. a colonial mansion, a hereditary estate, i would say a haunted house, and reach the height of romantic felicity—but that would be asking too much of fate! b. there is a delicious garden! i never saw such a garden—large and shady, full of box-bordered paths, and lined with long grape-covered arbors with seats under them. c. the color is repellent, almost revolting; a smoldering unclean yellow, strangely faded by the slow-turning sunlight. d. then i peeled off all the paper i could reach standing on the floor. it sticks horribly and the pattern just enjoys it!
