O Romantismo dos Estados Unidos apresenta diversas características. Dentre elas, pode-se destacar a 
preferência pelo romance para a escrita de longas histórias, o culto à natureza e destaque das paragens 
silvestres dos Estados Unidos como cenário ideal para retratar o humor dos personagens por meio desse 
espelhamento das emoções na natureza ainda agreste norte-americana. Fora isso, outras características 
podem ser destacadas. Com base nessas características, classifique V para as sentenças verdadeiras e F 
para as falsas:

são exaltados pelos escritores românticos americanos em suas obras.
(    ) Os escritores românticos estadunidenses acreditavam que a razão molda a experiência humana e o 
conhecimento do mundo.
(    ) Emoções são centrais para a identidade do homem na obra romântica norte-americana, visto que as 
coisas do coração atrapalhavam o discernimento dos personagens românticos.
(    ) Todas as emoções são muito importantes na literatura romântica americana.

A F - V - V - F.
B V - F - F - V.

The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting, 
While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring: 
But O heart! heart! heart!
O the bleeding drops of red, 
Where on the deck my Captain lies, 
Fallen cold and dead. 
O Captain! my Captain! rise up and hear the bells; 
Rise up-for you the flag is flung-for you the bugle trills;
For you bouquets and ribbon'd wreaths-for you the shores a-crowding; 
For you they call, the swaying mass, their eager faces turning; 
Here Captain! dear father! 
This arm beneath your head; 
It is some dream that on the deck,
You've fallen cold and dead. 
 
My Captain does not answer, his lips are pale and still; 
My father does not feel my arm, he has no pulse nor will; 
The ship is anchor'd safe and sound, its voyage closed and done; 
From fearful trip, the victor ship, comes in with object won;
Exult, O shores, and ring, O bells! 
But I, with mournful tread, 
Walk the deck my Captain lies, 
Fallen cold and dead.
About the poem, one may state the following:
I- The poet and the Captain had a common purpose to achieve, but they failled it.
II- Victory was achieved, but not by everyone as the Captain is dead.
III- The Captain is dead, but the dreams of the Captain survive in the crowd that waves to him.
IV- The crown is exhulting and waving, but the poet who knows the Captain's dead.
