Laugh and Be Merry/John Masefield/Public Domain
“Laugh and Be Merry” by John Masefield explains the main idea that C. Life is short; laugh and be merry.
The poem insists that the song of merry and laughter makes the world a better place. Such happiness helps in eradicating the sadness and negativity of the world. Further, it insists that the world becomes a better place when justice is served to those who did wrong, “Better the world with a blow in the teeth of a wrong.”
Linking it with the first line that happiness and laughter help in seeking justice.
The life is short like “a thread the length of a span”, hence, asking to laugh in the short span of life and make it meaningful. In the end, the poem insists to not to laugh just for oneself but for the humanity and history.

Explanation:
The options provided in the question concern the homophones "it's" and "its." They are commonly mistaken for each other dues to their sounding the same, and are consequently used erroneously. "It's" is the contraction of the subject pronoun "it" and the third-person singular verb "is." For that reason, "it's" is used as the subject of a clause, frequently substituting some previously mentioned noun or referring, for instance, to natural phenomena. The examples below help illustrate it:
- It's snowing again. - natural phenomenon
- My bike is making a weird noise when I try to start it. It's broken, I think. - substituting "my bike"
"Its", on the other hand, is a possessive adjective. It accompanies a noun, modifying it, to establish a relationship of possession between that noun and another one. Study the example below:
- That stray cat is constantly licking its paws. - the paws belong to the cat
Having that in mind, we can tell letter C is the only option that uses the correct homophone, since "its" establishes a relationship of possession between the song and the appeal. The song has an appeal. Its appeal (the song's) has been lost.
Letters A and B use "it's" when they should employ "its", and letter D does the opposite, using "its" when it actually needs the subject+verb "it's".

Verb
Adverb
Adjective
italics : warm
The correct answer is option D (adjective).
In this case, the adjective "warm" is preceded by the intensifier "so". Adjectives have the syntactic function of talking about nouns' attributes, as we can see in the example provided, since being "warm" is the attribute of the noun "day".
