Answer
A
envy toward the shopping families and for their cars and homes
B
resentment toward the changes of the modern world
C
a sense that the speaker feels out of place in 1950s America
D
an acceptance that the speaker cannot change the modern world
Explanation
Ginsberg’s speaker moves through a bright, ordinary supermarket but feels detached from the families shopping there. The poem’s free-flowing style and its contrast between the speaker and the shoppers create a sense that he does not belong in 1950s America. The best choice is “a sense that the speaker feels out of place in 1950s America,” rather than envy of the families’ possessions.
