Explanation:

In the poem, we note an interesting detail in the last two lines as to why the old woman sees herself as a "terrible fish". The line says,

<em>"In me she has drowned a young girl, and in me an old woman / Rises toward her day after day, like a terrible fish."</em>

The woman uses such expressions above to show that with the passage of time, her youthfulness like a drowning fish has passed away, bringing old age.

By comparing herself to a fish, she symbolizes her aging self to a fish on land seeking survival after it is taken from its natural habitat.

By using the expression "terrible" she depicts her hopeless condition as regards becoming young again, just as a fish taken from water enters a terrible situation.

stira [4]

Answer:

The author called the town quiet to build an element of surprise.

Explanation:

Knowing what we know now, I would have left the town when given the warning. The reader is shocked when they find out an unassuming quiet little town could be so horrid. I think the reason why Bev, Ezze and Benji stayed behind was so they would be in-character and it was sensible considering the situation they were in.
