Which text from the short story “Ambush” by Tim O’Brien exemplifies the theme of soldiers’ reticence, or inability, to discuss t

heir experiences at war?
1.Later, I would remember, Kiowa tried to tell me that the man would've died anyway. He told me it was a good kill that I was a soldier and this was a war, that I should shape up and stop staring and ask myself what the dead man would've done if things were reversed.

2. When she was nine, my daughter Kathleen asked if I had ever killed anyone. She knew about the war; she knew I'd been a soldier. "You keep writing war stories," she said, "so I guess you must've killed somebody." It was a difficult moment, but I did what seemed right, which was to say, "Of course not," and then to take her onto my lap and hold her for a while.

3. I had come to a crouch. It was entirely automatic. I did not hate the young man; I did not see him as the enemy; I did not ponder issues of morality or politics or military duty.

4. But here I want to pretend that she's a grown-up. I want to tell her exactly what happened, or what I remember happening, and then I want to say to her that as a little girl she was absolutely right.

I have this same question but I feel like I have the answer.
If you look at the second choice it shows him say "of course not" in reply to the child before he pulled her into his lap which shows his reluctance to talk about the subject with her. And seeing as the "B" choice is the only one with the number 2 as an option I would go for that one.

The poem's subtitle, below, adds to the development of the entire poem mainly by
Karolina [17]

Hello. You forgot the answer options. The options are:

suggesting that she (the speaker in the poem) prefers hardcover books to paperbacks

setting up (preparing to show) how important Mrs. Long would be to the speaker

pointing out how difficult it was for the speaker to access books when she was a child

explaining that no one had any idea of what the speaker was going through

Answer:

setting up (preparing to show) how important Mrs. Long would be to the speaker

Explanation:

The poem's subtitle reinforces the importance of the speaker and the experiences she has to tell. This establishes Mrs. Long as a central part of the poem, as it is she who will explain the subtitle, placing the reader in relation to the message emitted by the poem. In this case, we can say that the subtitle is important for the development of the poem, as it prepares Mrs. Long as the speaker, who will narrate the poem.
