We can state that option C, in the first question, and option D, in the second question, are the correct options.

The word "Somebody" is capitalized to emphasize the idea of ​​being known. In addition, the dashes shown in the poem are used to emphasize some humorous connections within the poem.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • The poem reinforces ideas about being known or not known.
  • She does this to show how fame is something empty and can't make anyone happy.
  • It also shows how not to be famous, it promotes a certain comfort to the human being.
  • In this case, to separate what is known and what is unknown, she uses the pronouns "Somebody" and "nobody."
  • She uses "Somebody" in capital letters to show the sense of the importance of being well known.

In addition, Dickinson presents the subject in a light, humorous manner. She does this by making humorous connections to the lines of the poem, which are emphasized by dashes, setting the tone well for the poem.
