Answer: C) people have little control over their own lives.

Explanation: In the given lines we can see that the theme of the story that is best represented is that people have little control over their own lives, because the lines imply that doesn't matter what a person does or says, if the fortune want to trick a man, she will do it in ways that the man doesn't expect at all, so this gives the idea of people having little or no control over their lives.

Read the passage from "By the Waters of Babylon.”
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

“waited again on the flat rock”

“the sun was beginning to sink”

Explanation:

The correct answer is "waited again on the flat rock" and "the sun was beginning to sink" because when the time and location are given in a narrative, it is said to be the setting. It is in setting the story's tone. A setting includes information about the time and place in the narrative. So, both phrases help us to picture the surrounding from the passage "By the Waters of Babylon.”
