Answer:

The textual evidence that best supports the analysis that the setting develops the author's acceptance of death is A. "The Forest People could have killed me without fight."

Explanation:

"By the Waters of Babylon" is a short story by Stephen Vincent Benét. The main character, John, is a priest and a priest's son who lives in a post-apocalyptic world where metal is believed to be evil. After having a revelation, John decides to travel to a forbidden place, a place where it is believed by himself and his people that gods used to live.

On his way, John accepts death as a consequence of his decision. He's well aware of the dangers on the way, such as the Forest People. He knows there is nothing that can be done to prevent his being killed in case they attack, as the textual evidence proves: "The Forest People could have killed me without fight."

“the wife’s lament” If the husband were to return, do you think the wife would be welcoming? Explain
Juliette [100K]
Yes, I believe she would be welcoming. Even though the last part of the poem sounds like a curse ("<span>May the young man be sad-minded with hard heart-thoughts"), it is still a statement of the speaker's enduring love for him. She suffers, but imagines that he suffers too, in the exile or wherever he is, and remembers their happy days with sorrow. Her depression has elements of embitteredness, but her love for him is not disputable.</span>

Answer:

Animals have taught us:

Compassion.  

Patience.

We're All Connected.  

Humans Aren't as Different as We Thought.

Respect Your Elders.

Responsibility.  

Listen Carefully.

Animals have taught us so many things with life and as we can see animals aren't as different as us humans; They've taught us responsibility (some proof on that fact is such as taking care of your young and gathering food for the pack/family/tribe) Listening carefully is also a good one something all animals need to have to survive, they use this technique for hunting, looking out for predators, etc. It is used in everyday life. Patience is something all animals need to help them throughout the day its not all easy to catch a fish with your mouth you know!

I hope this helps you! Let me know if it's wrong!! :)
