Question

Read the excerpt from A Rumor of War.By autumn, what had begun as an adventurous expedition had turned into an exhausting, indecisive war of attrition in which we fought for no cause other than our own survival.Based on the excerpt, the narratorRIGHT believes the reasons for fighting become muted over time and eventually all that matters is staying alive. T/F

Answer 1

Answer:

T

Explanation:

One of the statements from the excerpt is “we fought for no cause other than our own survival”. This means that nothing else was important to them again than to find a way to survive the war.

And on its own, survival means the fact of continuing to remain alive or to continue to exist after facing a difficult situation, an ordeal, a problem, an accident, a war, or other life-threatening danger.

Therefore, it is true that the narrator believes that the reasons for fighting become muted over time and eventually all that matters is staying alive.
