I believe the answer is: C. Allusion

Allusion refers to a literary device that is used to make indirect reference without actually mentioning it explicitly.

The reference that made through Allusion usually could only be understood by the readers if we read the previous part of the writing in order to get the context.

Which of these attitudes about war are reflected in "Grass"? Select all that apply.
Tema [17]
<span>-There are tremendous human costs in war.
-The sacrifices made in war are soon forgotten.

The poem personifies grass in a way that it is covering up all of the bodies and causing people to forget important sites of battle where so many people died. In the poem it says "</span>Two years, ten years, and the passengers ask the conductor:
<span>          What place is this?" This shows that the grass has grown so much that the people passing by do not even recognize it, and the sacrifices people made there are being forgotten. </span>

1. Paragraph 3 of "The Refusal” contains
Ad libitum [116K]

The setting affects the characters leaving them apathetic and resigned to the way they live, which makes them accept everything that the capital decides.

"The Refusal" is a story written by Franz Kafka, where we are introduced to a small town, where all citizens have their lives planned and established by the standards determined by the capital.

In the third paragraph of this story, we can see an apathetic setting, without many highlights and which does not express proactivity. This scenario affects citizens, leaving them as apathetic and resigned to the environment around them. This is because:

  • The city does not present anything new and exciting.
  • Everything the setting presents is determined by the capital and is presented as correct.
  • The scenery is boring and motionless.
  • This reinforces the idea that residents are affected in a tedious way, making them not bother with how they live, but rather satisfied with a limited life and without expressiveness.

In this case, we can conclude that the scenario affects the characters, making them submissive to the capital's will and not wishing to change that, as they are used to the monotony with which they live.
