Question

The poem is about __________.

• A. Being compassionate to others
• B. Making others happy
• C. One's own selfish interests
• D. Unimportant things

Answer 1

The correct option is A Being compassionate to others

Option A is the aptest answer because the entire poem is about wondering if the poet was there for the other person and therefore adhering to the compassionate nature.

Option B is incorrect as the poem is not only about making others happy, in fact, we don't even know if the other person is happy; all the poet is trying to say is to be compassionate and considerate.

Options C and D are incorrect because the poem is definitely not about selfish interests or unimportant things as it talks about being there for another person even while expecting nothing in return.
