Read the poem carefully, and answer the TWO questions that follow.
Comprehension:
It hurts to walk on new legs:
The curse of consonants. The wobble of vowels.
And you for whom I gave up a kingdom
Can never love that thing I was.
When you look into my past
You see
Only weeds and scales.
Once I had a voice.
Now I have legs.
Sometimes I wonder
Was it a fair trade?
The poem is about someone who gave up a lot ("a kingdom") for love. But this change has been painful ("It hurts to walk") and the person they did it for can't even appreciate who they used to be. The big question at the end ("Was it a fair trade?") shows that this journey of love has brought pain and makes the speaker question the cost. So, the main idea is that trying to find love can sometimes be painful.
Among the options, B is the most suitable choice.
