Answer:
Poisonous gases blistered soldiers' skin, eyes, and lungs.
Explanation:
Poisonous gases are extremely toxic. Many soldiers in WWI suffered injuries due to it, such as the ones listed above. We can also use the process of elimination to identify the answer.
❌<u>Choice 2</u>: Poisonous gases brought an end to trench warfare.
- This isn't the case. If anything, the gasses brought trench warfare more to the forefront. Also, trench warfare was used in WWII, so it's illogical to claim that it ended during WWI.
❌<u>Choice 3</u>: Poisonous gases melted weapons and other armaments.
- There is no evidence of this.
❌<u>Choice 4</u>: Poisonous gases caused explosions in the presence of gunpowder.
- Once again, no evidence supports this. Also, the main purpose of poisonous gas was not to cause explosions, regardless.
One of the difficulties that the men have with writing a ghost story is that they prefer to write in verse since they are all poets. Writing in prose is very difficult for them.
