Answer:
3. It suggests that similar missionary work was causing conflict in other places as well.
Explanation:
In Leslie Marmon Silko's short story "The Man To Send Rain Clouds", the story revolves around the beliefs of the native American Indians and the Christian priest. The traditional Indian pagan beliefs and the Catholic faiths present the contrast in the story.
When Leon and his brother-in-law Ken found his grandfather's dead body in the fields, Len decided to take care of the burial according to their Indian beliefs. But his wife Louise insist on telling the Catholic priest about the death so that he may also give a proper burial to their grandfather. But the priest believes that the Pueblo color painting and other rituals are pagan and against the catholic beliefs.
When Father Paul came to the house of the grieving family, he asserts that the holy water is only for a Catholic burial and not for something like the Pueblo rituals and ceremonies that Leon had done for his grandfather. In teh process of negotiating the application of the holy water on the dead body, Father Paul picks up a "<em>glossy missionary magazine... the colored pages full of lepers and pagans</em>". This inclusion of the missionary magazine is suggestive of the there missionary attempts/ works that are undertaken in other parts, but which had also been opposed by the 'native' residents of wherever that work has been carried out.
This tiny detail is included in the scene to show that there had been other instances of conflict regarding missionary work in other places as well.
In the section "Pathology Indicates Manner of Communication," Snow explains the nature of cholera and argues that the study of the disease will help scientists understand how it spreads and how it can be averted. He combines his knowledge of the characteristics of the disease with his clinical experiences to build his argument.
He continues to build his case through other sections of the essay. For example, in "Cases Proving Person to Person Transmission," he provides evidence from other cases to support his theory that cholera is spread between people. Then, in another section, he maps an outbreak that occurred on Broad Street, connecting the affected individuals to a single water pump. After making these supporting arguments, he arrives at his main argument that cholera spreads through contaminated water.
In sum, Snow discusses a different concept in each section; these sections complement one another to build a complete, effective argument. The section labels help the reader follow Snow's line of thinking by mapping the main points.
