<span>It dehumanizes them.

The whole theme of "grass" is that in time all sacrifices of war will be forgotten because the grass will grow over sites of battle and will not be recognizable anymore. Referring to the dead as just "bodies" takes away their humanity as time takes away the memory of those great losses by burying them under grass.</span>

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer: He likes to follow his own path

Explanation:

The crab in the excerpt decided not to play with the other animals but instead went off alone by itself to the sea. This is after the Eldest Magician had recommended that they do so.

The crab therefore prefers to follow its own path because even though the other animals had heeded the voice of the Magician and done what he had asked, the crab decided to do its own thing by going off to play alone.

Which BEST shows how the author of Passage 1
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

The city is portrayed as a challenge for Caroline to  either use its advantages to mature or to succumb  to its dangers.

Explanation:

Caroline Meeber (sister Carrie) is an eighteen year old lady who left her village in Wisconsin in search of a green pastures in Chicago. She was out to pursue her dream of wealth and fame.

The setting of passage 1 is a Chicago-bound train where Caroline, leaving home for the first time to stay with her sister, battles with her thoughts - how would life in the city be?

Nostalgic feelings of home are some quickly replaced with her expectations of city life - lights and sounds of a fast-paced city, moving cars, big houses and mansions, fame and affluence.

Even though Caroline was naive in thinking, her tastes and desires were certainly very high. She was also nervous and a bit fearful not knowing exactly what life in the city would offer her.
