Read the poem by Emily Dickinson. Answer the question that follows.
There is no Frigate like a Book
To take us Lands away.
Nor any Coursers like a Page
Of prancing Poetry-
This Traverse may the poorest take
Without oppress of Toll-
How frugal is the Chariot
That bears a Human soul.
Which of the following best paraphrases the poem?
There's nothing like a book to transport us to different places, just like a ship, and there's no horse as lively as a page filled with exciting poetry. Even the poorest can
take this journey without any cost.
Books are like fancy cars that can take us on expensive trips, and reading poetry is like riding a horse. Only the richest people can afford to go on these adventures
because they have plenty of money.
There is no frigate like a book to take us far away, nor any horses like a page of prancing poetry.
Reading books is like riding a spaceship to different planets, and poems are like magical creatures that come to life on the paper.
