I watched the ospreys hunting over the lake behind the house. One by one, they would stalk the defenseless fish swimming too clo

se to the surface and then dive into the lake when they'd selected their victim. Not a moment later, they'd break through the surface with a poor fish flailing and fighting for its life, only to carry it away and bring it to its final demise. Which best describes the author's feelings about the birds? She admires them and sees them as powerful and agile. She dislikes them and sees them as predatory and heartless. She dismisses them and sees them as irrelevant and unimportant. She pities them and sees them as animals struggling to survive.

Answer:

D - She pities them and sees them as animals struggling to survive.

Explanation:

"One by one, they would stalk the defenseless fish..."

"Not a moment later, they'd break through the surface with a poor fish flailing and fighting for its life only to carry it away and bring it to its final demise...."

She pities them. She understands that they are animals fighting and struggling to survive, but pities the situation of something, someone, putting and end to your life just like that. In that moment the fish is being hunted, but something else could hunt the ospreys. It would be the same situation.

Answer:

b.) she dislikes them and sees them as predatory and heartless.

Explanation:

in the given passage, she sympathizes the fish, describing them as 'defenseless' and 'poor fish flailing and fighting for its life'. as well as describing the birds as predators by saying quote, 'when they'd selected their  victim'. this comes to show that <em>the author dislikes them (the birds) and sees them as predatory and heartless.</em>
