The assignment for this lesson is to write two speeches that compare and contrast Mark Twain's Life on the Mississippi with Frederick Douglass's Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave The first speech addresses a group of educated adults who are trying to decide which work to read and discuss at their book club. Your job is not to recommend one of these books over the other. Instead, you need to analyze the style of each work in order to help your listeners make the right choice for their reading interests Your second speech should describe the same two works to a group of fifth-grade students. Your goal is to tell them about the texts and to get them excited about literature.

explanation:

the second option.is correct

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
