Read the excerpt from Anthem. The word “We” is as lime poured over men, which sets and hardens to stone, and crushes all beneath

it, and that which is white and that which is black are lost equally in the grey of it. Which best states the effect of the imagery in the excerpt? The comparison of the word “We” to limestone helps to develop the theme that collective thinking strengthens society. The comparison of the word “We” to limestone helps to develop the theme that a collective society destroys humankind’s potential. The description of black and white becoming gray helps to develop the theme that all people are equal. The description of black and white becoming gray helps to develop the theme that living only for oneself is a colorless and bleak existence.

Which excerpt from "Hills Like White Elephants" provides the most details about the main characters' lives outside the
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

The excerpt that provides the most details about the main characters' lives outside the railway station is:

D. "He did not say anything but looked at the bags against the wall of the station. There were labels on them from all the hotels where  they had spent nights."

Explanation:

"Hills Like White Elephants" by Ernest Hemingway is a short story revolving around the conflict between the two main characters. <u>They are a couple - apparently, unmarried -, and she is pregnant. However, their lifestyle will be greatly affected if she has the child. They live an easy life, comprised mainly of traveling and drinking, as the excerpt reveals:</u>

<em><u>"He did not say anything but looked at the bags against the wall of the station. There were labels on them from all the hotels where  they had spent nights."</u></em>

<u>The passage above reveals they travel a lot in each other's company. We do not know much about their lives besides that revelation - what their professions are, why they have the means to travel so much, etc.</u>

She is tired of such a life. She sees it as meaningless, pointless. He, on the other hand, does not want to be disturbed or concerned by the existence of a child. He defends the idea that they are happy the way they are, and that nothing should change.
