By the Waters of Babylon” would change if it were told from John's father's point of view as it'll reveal the perspective of the father.
<h3>How to explain the story?</h3>
The plot follows John as he travels on his initiation quest to prove himself to his tribe as a man and a priest. John bases his journey decisions on visions and his interpretation of the signs he sees in the natural world. John breaks many of his tribe's laws because of his thirst for knowledge.
John learns chants, spells, and other mysteries from the priests. He picks up wound-healing techniques as well as the "old method" of reading and writing. John explains that although if a lot of the priests' work isn't actually magic, his father feels it's okay to let other people think it is.

Answer:
4. Tear down the wall and get closer to his neighbor.
Explanation:
The speaker feels that building walls is unnecessary and unnatural, and he wants to tear it down and get closer to his neighbor.
It's definitely D.
It's for sure not C. And I've never read the full story, but this passage doesn't indicate a depressing mood of foreshadowing danger. And the vocabulary in the writing doesn't impact the story itself.
My overall impression of the book Blood on the River is that it’s a very good book. The reason I like it is because, it’s really suspenseful and it gets me really excited to keep reading. I think Elisa Carbone did a very good job of going to lots of places just to get facts so she could write an awesome book like that.
The character I can connect the most with is probably Samuel because he goes through a lot of hardships, either it being food, survival or Indian attacks. He also has to befriend someone he doesn’t trust yet.
The character that me most about life and death in the beginning and the end, was probably Captain John Smith because when he made Samuel stand on one foot, and told him that the whole colony has to be able to stand on two feet to survive.
I think the theme of the story that Elisa Carbone is trying to incorporate is bravery. I know this because on pages 78-80 it shows how Samuel knew just what to do about the situation they were in. With a lot of arrows flying around the fort, he got both the boys to go under the tent. James tried to get out but Samuel was pulling him, James started to get away but then Samuel lunged at him and grabbed him harder but James bit him and got away.
Another theme I thought was survival when he was at the Native American village how he learned how to make things using all-natural supplies. I think this because, when he was in the village he learned how to hunt and survive. The supplies he learned to make was “arrows, a bow, and a knife, then Kainta taught him how to shoot straight strait at target practice.
