A. Finds poetry to be a frustrating and meaningless endeavor.

B. Believes that the emotional rollercoaster of studying poetry is not worth the effort.

C. Recognizes the challenges of studying poetry but also acknowledges the rewards it offers.

Answer:

So, the correct answer is (c) - Recognizes the challenges of studying poetry but also acknowledges the rewards it offers.

Step-by-step explanation by Teachoo:

To answer this question, we need to identify the author's attitude or tone throughout the text. This can be done by looking at the words and phrases they use to express their opinion on studying poetry.🔎

  • Option A is incorrect because the author does not find poetry to be meaningless . On the contrary, they state that reading poetry allows one to appreciate the artistic beauty of the written word and develop crucial skills.❌
  • Option B is incorrect because the author does not think that the emotional rollercoaster of studying poetry is not worth the effort. Instead, they say that studying poetry can be a rewarding pursuit and a source of pride and validation.❌
  • Option C is correct because it accurately captures the author's attitude towards studying poetry. The author recognizes the challenges of studying poetry, such as frustration, confusion, and bewilderment, but also acknowledges the rewards it offers, such as appreciation, accomplishment, and gratification.✅
  • Option D is incorrect because the author does not feel that poetry is too obscure and abstract for the average person to appreciate. Rather, they say that there is always something to be gained from the experience of studying poetry, whether it is simple or complex.❌

Therefore, the correct answer is C. Recognizes the challenges of studying poetry but also acknowledges the rewards it offers.👏
