2. How does the tone change throughout the poem? A The tone begins as depressed but turns much more upbeat when the sailor sees the crowds waiting for the ship on the shore.

C The tone begins as depressed and stays that way throughout the poem, for the captain dies without completing the journey. D The tone begins as celebratory, then changes to shock and disbelief, and ends on a depressed note.

Incomplete question. I answered based on the poem "O Captain! My Captain!" by Walt Whitman.

C The tone begins as depressed and stays that way throughout the poem, for the captain dies without completing the journey.

Explanation:

Remember, right from the first line of the poem we notice the use of a sad (depressed) tone. For example, the first line read,

"O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done,"

This statement is later followed by even more expressions of grief as the poem progresses further. The author here reveals to his audience that the captain has died suddenly with the words,

"Here Captain! dear father!

                           This arm beneath your head!

                              It is some dream that on the deck,

                                You’ve fallen cold and dead. "

So the best conclusion we can make regarding the tone throughout the poem is that the tone begins as depressed and stays that way throughout the poem, for the captain dies without completing the journey.
