Question

choose the correct answer.
which is a theme of the poem \if\?

• if you are angry, untrusting, and unproductive, you will never find true happiness.
• if you remain calm, cool, and collected, you will face fewer troubles in life.
• if you strive for wealth, success, and recognition, you will certainly find them.
• if you are determined, self - reliant, and self - controlled, you will have a full, successful life.

Explanation:

Rudyard Kipling's poem If- centers on cultivating virtues like resolve, self-reliance, and self-discipline as the foundation for a meaningful, successful life. The other options do not align with the poem's core message: it does not focus on anger leading to unhappiness, calmness eliminating troubles, or guaranteeing wealth/recognition through striving.

Answer:

If you are determined, self-reliant, and self-controlled, you will have a full, successful life.
