What two characters in William Wordsworth's "The Solitary Reaper" are unnamed?

  1. The singer and the listener

  2. The singer and the poet

  3. The poet and the listener

  4. The singer and her mother

The correct answer is: The singer and the listener

In William Wordsworth's poem "The Solitary Reaper," the two unnamed characters are the singer and the listener. In the poem, the singer is a Scottish highlander girl, identified only by her unique voice and the sound of her song, while the listener is an observer who hears her song and becomes entranced. The other options, such as the poet and the mother, are not mentioned in the poem and do not play a role in the story. Therefore, they cannot be considered as the unnamed characters.
