Which sentence in this excerpt gives a sense of Stephen’s reluctance to take part in sports? A Portrait of the Artist as a Young

Man by James Joyce (excerpt from Chapter 1) The wide playgrounds were swarming with boys shouting and the prefects urged them on with strong cries. The evening air was pale and chilly and after every charge and thud of the footballers the greasy leather orb flew like a heavy bird through the grey light. He kept on the fringe of his line, out of sight of his prefect, out of the reach of the rude feet, feigning to run now and then. He felt his body small and weak amid the throng of the players and his eyes were weak and watery. Rody Kickham was not like that: he would be captain of the third line all the fellows said. Rody Kickham was a decent fellow but Nasty Roche was a stink. Rody Kickham had greaves in his number and a hamper in the refectory. Nasty Roche had big hands. He called the Friday pudding dog-in-the-blanket.

The sentence of this excerpt that gives a sense of Stephen's reluctance to take part in sports is:

<em>He kept on the fringe of his line, out of sight of his prefect, out of the reach of the rude feet, feigning to run now and then. </em>

This sentence conveys the idea that, although the character is on the brink of getting involved, he does not actually take part. Rather than that, he tries to remain invisible for the ones that are, in fact, involved.

Consider these versions of The War of the Worlds.
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

The statement which best describes the similarity between these versions is:

B. Both versions impart setting details through colorful description.

Explanation:

H. G. Wells was an English author (1866-1946) who wrote the famous novel "War of the Worlds," in which martians invade the Earth. As we know, the novel was adapted and broadcast via radio in 1938 to sound as if it were news bulletins. Allegedly, some people panicked while listening to the radio, truly believing the planet was under attack. However, we now know it was not a generalized panic.

Both excerpts give a colorful, vivid description of the scene before the narrator's eyes. Word choice makes it possible for readers, in the first case, and listeners, in the second, to really see, hear, or even feel the same things as the narrator. With the first excerpt, we can see the person who fell into the pit trying to leave it, only to slip back and then be dragged by some mysterious creature. With the second passage, we can see the cars, the police, the headlights, and finally the shadows of the people who have approached the object that fell from the sky.
