1. The repetition of the term "sacred cheese" invokes the idea of seeming powerless and caught in a trap.The narrator is complaining about his sad fate to see the land in front of him after his ship was destroyed, but being unable to reach that land and save himself. The sacred cheese is the food that a hungry person sees and wants to have, but something is preventing him from having it, the same way that something is preventing these shipwrecked people from reaching the island and saving themselves from certain death.
2. This idea is in keeping with the theme of the story that humans are subservient to nature's power.The entire story written by Crane is talking about how people want to control nature, but are ultimately unable to do so because nature is the actual ruler, and not people. People may think they are able to control nature, but in cases such as this one in the story, we can see how we are powerless when faced with nature and all of its glory and strength. It controls are fates and destinies, and it is the one who will decide whether we live or die.

Which question would most likely be answered by reading the exposition of a story?

VladimirAG [237]

Really, that depends on the story you're reading. The story wouldn't tell where the author is born, the author could've researched another country to make the character act the way they do, so you could quickly eliminate that answer. Sometimes you can tell what decision the character will make if the book is easily predictable, like usually in teen fiction. Imagine a book where there's a good girl, she's very shy. She meets a bad boy, a player. You can easily predict that they will get together. I doubt that you will figure out that there are multiple themes just by reading the exposition. The exposition is the introduction, there's so much more to read after that. The last one sounds more like it, in the exposition, it immediately introduces the main character. It shows you the personality of the main character.

I hope this helped! Have a great day!
