from poem "house with the grey gate", 'expecting someone; though nofor years.' who is expecting someone? why do you think nobody comes? do you think the person still has hopes? give reasons.

The woman is expecting someone.

Explanation:

In the poem "House With The Grey Gate" by Tabhish Khar, the old woman is most probably expecting her children and grandchildren to visit her and her husband.

Nobody visits them because everyone has become so busy with thier own life and families. In fact, they are treated without any regard as they have grown old and fragile.

Yes, the person still has hopes because she has grown so stubborn with old age that she does not want to accept the fact that no one might visit them.

since it is asking for her reaction to elnora's trouble at school you can rule out any answers with a positive response (b). then you can rule out (d), this is because it does not show the mother's reaction but the daughter's response. that leaves you with two options (a) and (c), by looking at the options you can rule out (c) because it isn't referring back to elnora's issues at school.

what are the options?
