Explanation:
hope it helped
The world is too much with us; late and soon,
Getting and spending, we lay waste our powers:
Little we see in Nature that is ours;
We have given our hearts away, a sordid boon!1
This Sea that bares her bosom to the moon;
The winds that will be howling at all hours,
And are up-gathered now like sleeping flowers;
For this, for everything, we are out of tune;
It moves us not.—Great God! I'd rather be
A Pagan suckled in a creed outworn;
So might I, standing on this pleasant lea2,
Have glimpses that would make me less forlorn;
Have sight of Proteus3 rising from the sea;
Or hear old Triton4 blow his wreathed horn.

3 Greek sea -god who could change his appearance at will
4 Greek sea -god with the head and upper body of a man and the tail of a fish

Answer:
In the sestet of The World Is Too Much with Us, William Wordsworth proposes to address the problem of people losing respect and connection with nature by wishing to be a pagan, so that he would have learned a different way of seeing nature.The correct answer is B.
Explanation:
I choose B because the speaker clearly wishes he had been into other religions more related with nature in order to see and appreciate it like Proteus and Triton do. The poem literally says that when the speaker says: "Great God! I'd rather be / A Pagan suckled in a creed outworn;". In this line he expresses how he thinks the main problem of the poem, which is that humanity has lost its respect for and connection with nature, would be solved. He thinks that because of him being raised the way he did, he as most of his equals is not able to appreciate and connect properly with nature. I chose B because to have been a pagan is the way the speaker finds to address the issue.
