i was wondering if anyone could help me
2. when the speaker refers to pausing to “ enjoy the view / of the trees and the flowers below ,” he really is talking about ( 1point )
A looking down at the view from the mountain
b. giving up the struggle to just focus on his past successes
c. begin inspired by the beauty of the scenery
d. taking pleasure in the challenges he’s already overcome
This is probably the poem.
Another Mountain: By Abiodun Oyewole
Sometimes there's a mountain that I must climb even after I've climbed one already
But my legs are tired right now and my arms need a rest, my mind is too weary right now
But I must climb before the storm comes, before the earth rocks and an avalanche of clouds buries me and smothers my soul
And so I prepare myself for another climb
Another Mountain
And I tell myself it is nothing, it is just some more dirt and stone and every now and then I should reach another plateau and enjoy the view of the trees and flowers below
And I am young enough to climb and strong enough to make it to any top
You see the wind has warned me about settling too long about peace without struggle
The wind has warned me and taught me how to fly
But my wings only work
After I've climbed a mountain.
So now you need to find the poem called "Another Mountain" ... not Miley Cyrus's song!!
I entered another mountain poem in Google and found this:

Read it all, and let us know what you think the answer is.
What is the title and who is the author of this? Out of context, it's very hard to tell.
see idk what the name is
OK, be sure to learn how to look these things up on Google or Bing.
I looked up just the quoted section on Google, and this is one of the links that came up: http://www.phillipsprep.com/Common/Assignments/PrintAssignment.asp?StaffID=3802&AssignmentID=571851&SchoolID=45
No opinion yet??
To answer this multiple-choice question, we need to carefully read the given options and analyze them in relation to the context provided in the question.
Based on the information provided, the speaker is "pausing to enjoy the view of the trees and the flowers below." We need to select the option that best reflects what the speaker means by this action.
a. Looking down at the view from the mountain: This option seems to be a literal interpretation of the statement. However, the phrase "enjoy the view of the trees and the flowers below" suggests that the speaker is contemplating the beauty of the scenery, rather than simply looking down from a mountain.
b. Giving up the struggle to just focus on his past successes: This option doesn't accurately reflect the speaker's action of pausing to enjoy the view. The statement implies that the speaker is taking a break to appreciate nature, not giving up or reflecting on past successes.
c. Being inspired by the beauty of the scenery: This option aligns with the idea of pausing to enjoy the view. The speaker finds inspiration in the beauty of nature, as indicated by "enjoy the view of the trees and the flowers below." Therefore, this option seems to capture the intended meaning.
d. Taking pleasure in the challenges he's already overcome: This option doesn't directly relate to the description of the speaker pausing to enjoy the view. While it is possible that the speaker may take pleasure in their achievements, there is no explicit indication of this in the given context.
Given the analysis above, option (c) "being inspired by the beauty of the scenery" appears to be the most appropriate choice.
