Which of the following statements is not true in the context of the poem ?

  • A.The tree welcomes the snow on its bosom.
  • B.The tree symbolizes strength and stability.
  • C.The tree allows birds to build their nests in it.
  • D.It lives closely with rain.

Answer: B

The statement that is not true is that the tree symbolizes strength and stability.

The poem describes the tree as lovely, hungry, praying, wearing a nest of robins in her hair, having snow lie on her bosom and living intimately with rain. Strength and stability are never mentioned. Birds nesting in it and living closely with rain are stated directly.

Snow lying on its bosom is stated; whether the tree 'welcomes' it is a reading of the line, and the key treats that statement as acceptable.
