Answer:
(a.)The writers whom Barry Lopez mentioned in the first paragraph have in common is the kind of writing they do, recently referred to as <em>"nature or landscape writing".</em> It is a type of writing that takes into account the impact that nature and place have on culture.
(b). By mentioning a range of old and new writers, Barry Lopez tried to make a point that although people believed the type of nature writing is new, there have been several and widely known nature writers in the past in American Literature who have written about impact of nature and place on culture, or nature/landscape writing. He tried to emphasize that the old names would readily come to mind before remembering the new writers on the block.
<em>dialog that subtly suggests communication conflicts</em> This is the correct option.
The charters in the story ,“Hills Like White Elephants”, talk about "it" all the time. The reader has to infer that what the man and the woman are talking about is an abortion. However, they seem to have difficulties to speak openly about it and they do not have it clear what they will decide. There are communication conflicts. The man thinks he knows what will be best for the woman but she does not sound so assertive. Their dialogue is fragmented. There is not a "history" line through it. The reader has to assume how it is they got together and she became pregnant. Yet, the couple are faced with a difficulty they find it hard to talk about.
These options are not right:
-characters who hide secret intentions from one another ( In this case, the woman is not hiding her pregnancy, for example. The man is not hiding his intentions , either. They cannot talk freely and openly about their problem: the woman 's pregnancy).
-imagery that highlights the importance of the setting. ( The imagery is used metaphorically to ,probably, represent the characters' emotions and moods).
-metaphors that reveal significant plot developments. ( Heminway tends to use simple language to get closer to the reader. Therefore, he will not oversuse sophisticated language).
