Explanation:

The poem "Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night" repeatedly uses the refrain "Rage, rage against the dying of the light," which emphasizes the speaker urging resistance against the end of life. This shows a stance of fighting back rather than accepting passively, matching the idea of resiliency and toughness. The other options are inconsistent: peace/tranquility contradicts the call to rage; frustration/anger is too narrow (the tone is defiant resistance, not just frustration); confusion/surprise is not present in the text.

Answer:

B. resiliency and toughness.
