Hi! Unfortunately, I can't give you the exact answer since your question is incomplete. I did a little research online, but wasn't able to complete it on my own. What I did find out is that this task is referred to a passage from Faulkner (Ice Hockey). So, let's try to figure it out together.

Explanation:

In order to pick the correct answer for this question, you have to carefully read the passage and see what its words make you feel. Ask yourself: What does it transmit? How do I feel reading these words? What is its spirit? When you answer this in your own head, you will know the answer. Is the tone of the passage enthusiastic, is it cynical, does it sound like someone is obliged to participate? Does it sound like it is the first time that the person talking sees something? Does it sound like a sports broadcast? Well, think carefully about it, and you'll have the answer.

Trust yourself, you'll do great!

it's like watching a fable, it's not really about the animals but rather it has a meaning that is understood by us and that is implicit, not explicitly said. implicit ideas are common and are used in almost all works of art, from writing to painting to sculpting.
