Question

1. when you’re choosing a poem to perform, what question should you ask yourself?

will readers understand most of this poem the first time they hear it?
will this poem express ideas that others might disagree with?
is this poem cool and exciting enough for listeners who are my age?
does this poem say something profound that every listener can relate to?

Explanation:

When choosing a poem to perform, the key is to select one with a profound message relatable to all listeners. The first option focuses on comprehension (not core for performance choice), the second on disagreement (not relevant), the third on "cool/exciting" for peers (narrow). The fourth asks if it has a profound, relatable idea, which is essential for a performance to engage all listeners.

Answer:

D. Does this poem say something profound that every listener can relate to?
