Discussion

Explanation:

Rilke’s conclusion is repeated almost verbatim in option 1. “I don’t know why and how,’ is Rilke’s conclusion, ‘but suddenly I understood the situation of the poet, his place and function in this age.” These are the concluding words of Rilke from the passage after the example of the ‘sea’ and ‘the other creation’  mentioned in the question.
Option 2 is mundane and quotes the example itself and not its purpose.
Option 3 is abstract, and an ‘aimlessness’ cannot be attributed either to the oarsmen or the singer.
Option 4 ‘understanding the elements’ is not the purpose of either the oarsmen or the singer.
Option 5 is vague; the passage does not explain either natural experience or real waves.
Hence, the correct answer is option 1.
