- "I like a look of Agony,
Because I know it's true
Men do not sham Convulsion,
Nor simulate, a Throe
The eyes glaze once - and that is Death
Impossible to feign
The Beads upon the Forehead
By homely Anguish strung."
Which of the following options is/are implied by this poem? - "Although feminist philosophers have traditionally sought to show how the body is figured as feminine, or how women have been associated with materiality (whether inert – always already dead – or fecund – ever-living and procreative) where men have been associated with the principle of rational mastery, Irigaray wants to argue that in fact the feminine is precisely what is excluded in and by such a binary opposition. In this sense, when and where women are represented within this economy is precisely the site of their erasure."

- "We dwell with satisfaction upon the poet's difference from his predecessors, especially his immediate predecessors; [...].

Which of the following options is/are implied by this excerpt? - "What if, in order to save some humans lost in their language, in order to deliver the humans themselves, at the expense of their language, it was better to renounce the language, at least to renounce the best conditions for survival ‘at all costs' for the idiom? And what if some humans were more worth saving than their language, under circumstances where, alas, one needed to choose between them? For we are living in a period in which the question at times arises. Today, on this earth of humans, certain people must yield to the homo-hegemony of dominant languages. They must learn the language of the masters, of capital and machines; they must lose their idiom in order to survive or live better."
