Passage
The number of people taking up the sport of running has increased
significantly over the last 10 years. Sports experts give many reasons for the
rise in the popularity of running. Because many people want to save money,
they are avoiding paying fitness center dues and choosing instead to pound
the pavement in running shoes and clothing, which are relatively inexpensive.
Creative racing opportunities are also a draw for new runners. For example,
adventure runs offer participants a chance to run through mud or outdistance
zombies. Basically, running offers a new way to have fun while sweating.

Read the selection below and answer the question. an open boat by alfred noyes o, what is that whimpering there in the darkness?    'let him lie in my arms. he is breathing, i know.  look. i'll wrap all my hair round his neck' – the sea's rising,  the boat must be lightened. he's dead. he must go.'     see - quick - by that flash, where the bitter foam tosses,   the cloud of white faces, in the black open boat,   and the wild pleading woman that clasps her dead lover   and wraps her loose hair round his breast and his throat.  'come, lady, he's dead.' - 'no, i feel his heart beating,  he's living, i know. but he's numbed with the cold.   see, i'm wrapping my hair all around him to warm him.' - - 'no. we can't keep the dead, dear. come, loosen your hold.   'come. loosen your fingers.' - 'o god, let me keep him! ' -  o, hide it, black night! let the winds have their way!   and there are no voices or ghosts from that darkness,   to fret the bare seas at the breaking of day. which choice best describes the conflict in this poem? the winds are rocking the boat. a man is thrown into the sea. a woman doesn’t want to let go of her dead lover. someone is crying in the darkness.
