C Bottling up one's feelings leads to resentment and even violence D A healthy friendship is built on trust and communication.

Respuesta :

Answer: C. Bottling up one's feelings leads to resentment and even violence

Explanation:

This is based on the poem, A Poison Tree by William Blake. In it the speaker describes how they were angry with their friend and told them about it which led to the anger dissipating. The same person became angry with a foe and did not tell the foe which led to the anger increasing every day.

It then got to the point where the speaker confronted the foe and ended up either killing or injuring the foe as the foe was lying on the ground at the end of the poem. This shows that one should not bottle up their feelings especially negative ones as they can grow and lead to resentment and sometimes violence.
