The answer is: To express the poet's ideas using different words while maintaining the same point of view and mood.

Explanation for each option:

  1. To replace every word with a synonym: This is incorrect because paraphrasing involves more than just swapping words with their synonyms. It requires rephrasing the entire text to convey the same meaning in a different way.

  2. To translate the poem into another language: This is incorrect because translating involves converting text from one language to another, which is different from paraphrasing. Paraphrasing stays within the same language but uses different words and structures.

  3. To summarize the poem's plot: This is incorrect because summarizing involves condensing the content to its main points, often omitting details and nuances. Paraphrasing, on the other hand, retains the original meaning and details but rephrases them.

  4. To express the poet's ideas using different words while maintaining the same point of view and mood: This is correct. Paraphrasing involves rewording the text to make it clearer or more accessible while preserving the original meaning, tone, and perspective of the poem.
