"The sole thought in my mind was that if anything went wrong those two thousand Burmans would see me pursued, caught, trampled o
n and reduced to a grinning corpse like that Indian up the hill. And if that happened it was quite probable that some of them would laugh. That would never do." Which phrase demonstrates the author's choice to include literal statements?
A) If anything went wrong
B) Like that Indian
C) The sole thought
D) Would see me pursued
This is the correct answer because, none of the other answers phrases provide literal statements. The author was comparing himself to a literal Indian up the hill in this statement.
