Which line from the poem "the river-merchant's wife: a letter" by ezra pound best supports the idea that the children are fond of each other?

a."you came by on bamboo stilts, playing horse,"
b."two small people, without dislike or suspicion."
c."the monkeys make sorrowful noise overhead."
d."the paired butterflies are already yellow with august"

B). "Two small people, without dislike or suspicion."

Explanation:

'The River-Merchant's Wife: A Letter' authored by Ezra Pound is a poem(in a dramatic monologue) that is actually an adaptation of a Chinese poem written by a sixteen-year-old girl. It is written as a letter by the river merchant's wife displaying her unspoken feelings to her husband who is far away.

As per the question, option B i.e. 'Two small people, without dislike or suspicion' involves the line that most adequately compliments the idea of 'children being fond of each other.' 'Two small people' stands for the children and the phrase 'without dislike or suspicion' implies that they do not have any kind of distrust, doubt, or uncertainty towards each other. They like each other's company and enjoy the time together without suspicion or dislike.Thus, option B is the correct answer.

the answer:

in the first part of the story running is all that matters to squeaky. running gives her confidence and defines who she is. at the beginning of the story she says that other kids call her mercury because she runs very fast. in the text she refers to herself as "miss quicksilver".

the line that provides the best evidence that squeaky has self-confidence is

" and i continue with my breathing exercise, strolling down broadway toward the ice cream man on 145th with not a care in the world cause i am miss quicksilver herself".

yes, post it and i can try to you out.
