will mark as the brainiest !   which statement best reflects the theme of the poem? a) even the power of nature cannot protect us from evil. b) although the sea may appear beautiful, it can be treacherous and ruthless. c) the nightmares that live in the sea of our subconscious are very powerful. d) women are like the ocean in that they have the potential for both good and evil.

often a noun phrase is just a noun or a pronoun:

people like to have money.

i am tired.

it is getting late.

1. this would be first person. it would be like "i walked home from school today" they are the narrator of the story and is a character as well.

2. first person because they used the word "i" in the quote.

3. i'm really not sure about this one i'm really sorry i never read it so i wouldn't know how to answer it. 

4. it would be character vs. society because everyone he meets there is always a conflict of some sort because he's stuck in his daydream.

5. it would be sadness at the loss of youth because the title itself tells us it's about age so it couldn't be about regret. and the tone just sounds sad, not angry. 

i hope this !
