The passage:
(1) The Boll Weevil Monument is located in Enterprise, Alabama. (2) This monument is considered the only monument that honors an agricultural pest. (3) Sometime between 1910 and 1919, the boll weevils made their way to Alabama and destroyed about 60% of the town’s cotton fields. (4) After getting advice from local scientists, many farmers decided to grow other crops, mainly peanuts. (5) Varying crops kept the farmers and the town from financial ruin. (6) In fact, the town prospered greatly, and the change in crops improved the soil. (7) A local businessman named Bon Fleming thought the boll weevil deserved a monument for promoting change in the area. (8) In 1919, the monument was placed in the center of town to give thanks to the boll weevil for being a “herald to prosperity,” which is how the historical marker refers to the insect. (9) The monument that was originally there, however, didn’t have a boll weevil on it. (10) The monument consisted of a Classical Greek woman holding a small fountain over her head. (11) In 1949, a man named Luther Baker thought a boll weevil should be a part of the monument. (12) He made one and put it on top of the fountain.

Read the selection below and answer the question. an open boat by alfred noyes o, what is that whimpering there in the darkness?
'let him lie in my arms. he is breathing, i know.
look. i'll wrap all my hair round his neck' – the sea's rising,
the boat must be lightened. he's dead. he must go.'
see - quick - by that flash, where the bitter foam tosses,
the cloud of white faces, in the black open boat,
and the wild pleading woman that clasps her dead lover
and wraps her loose hair round his breast and his throat.
'come, lady, he's dead.' - 'no, i feel his heart beating,
he's living, i know. but he's numbed with the cold.
see, i'm wrapping my hair all around him to warm him.' -
- 'no. we can't keep the dead, dear. come, loosen your hold.
'come. loosen your fingers.' - 'o god, let me keep him! ' -
o, hide it, black night! let the winds have their way!
and there are no voices or ghosts from that darkness,
to fret the bare seas at the breaking of day. which choice best describes the conflict in this poem? the winds are rocking the boat. a man is thrown into the sea. a woman doesn’t want to let go of her dead lover. someone is crying in the darkness.
