The correct answer is “They give the sense that nature has taken over a once-urban area”. Taken from the short story “<em>By the Waters of Babylon</em>” by Stephen Vincent Benét (1937), the passage presented above narrates the moment when John, the son of a priest, visits <u>the Place of the Gods</u>. The Place of the Gods or The Dead Place was a great city that was destroyed by a great burning and it was said to be inhabited with spirits and demons since then. Since the passage describes this desolate place, the writer used a suspense tone in the narration. It is said to be desolate because the state of the place is completely empty, and <u>nature has taken over the place</u>. In fact, the words “<em>stone or metal,</em>” “<em>many pigeons,</em>” “<em>towers,</em>” and "<em>wild cats that roam the god-roads</em>” describe the details of a desolate place that has been taken over by nature, which is <u>the Place of the Gods</u>.
