The author tells us in the last paragraph that Spanish poetry wants to βreturn to an ideal culture of the distant past.β The correct answer probably relates to this understanding of Spanish poetry.

Not supported, because the author never suggests that Spanish poets are critical about their own cultural past. They want to return to it, but this doesnβt imply a critical attitude toward it.
Not supported, because Spanish poets want to write about things connected to their own cultural past. Thereβs no indication that the poets feel βlittleβ natural affinity for their own past.
c
This relationship is ββββββ βββ βββββββ βββββ ββ ββββ βββββββ βββββββ
Not supported, because the author never indicates that Spanish poetryβs relationship with its own cultural past is the subject of much Spanish poetry. The desire to go back to an idealized past may influence what is written, but that doesnβt imply that the relationship between poetry and the past is itself the subject of many poems.
Not supported, because the author never indicates that contemporary (modern) Spanish readers are uninterested in Spanish poetry.
