Question

\hope\ is the thing with feathers why might dickinson choose to describe hope as \singing the tune without the words\? to indicate that hope only appears in times of joy to imply that hope is hard to hear or understand to suggest that hope communicates emotionally rather than logically to show that hope is confusing and unclear

Explanation:

In Emily Dickinson's poem "Hope is the Thing With Feathers", describing hope as "singing the tune without the words" relates to how hope conveys emotion (like a song's feeling) rather than logical, verbal content. Option A is wrong as hope isn't implied to be only in joy. Option B is wrong as the phrase doesn't imply hope is hard to hear/understand. Option D is wrong as hope isn't shown as confusing. Option C matches the idea that hope is emotional (through the song - like, wordless tune) rather than logical (verbal words).

Answer:

C. To suggest that hope communicates emotionally rather than logically
