And indeed there will be time

To wonder, "Do I dare?" and, "Do I dare?"

Time to turn back and descend the stair,

With a bald spot in the middle of my hair -

(They will say: "How his hair is growing thin!")

My morning coat, my collar mounting firmly to the chin,

My necktie rich and modest, but asserted by a simple pin -

(They will say: "But how his arms and legs are thin!")

Do I dare

Disturb the universe?

In a minute there is time

For decisions and revisions which a minute will reverse.

Which words best indicate that Prufrock feels uncertain?

A. disturb, universe, minute

B. turn back, revisions, reverse

C. time, descend, asserted

D. modest, simple, thin

Landon Rosario · Answer 1

B. turn back, revisions, reverse

Explanation:

I choose B because to turn back on something mean you are unsure of it. revisions means something must be looked over and fixed, while reverse is simply going back to where you were which to mean indicates uncertainty.
