Question

Two years, ten years, and passengers ask the conductor:What place is this?Where are we now?

Answer 1

Answer:

B. People quickly forget the horrors of war.

Explanation:

In his poem "Grass", Carl Sandburg wrote about how 'grass' acts as a covering for all things, even significant and important events in history. It covers up the "pile the bodies high at Austerlitz and Waterloo", "at Gettysburg..... at Ypres and Verdun". Alluding to these historical events, he emphasizes on how the passing of time and the 'grass' act as 'levelers' or ' covering' for the effects that the wars had.

By giving a powerful statement question "What place is this?Where are we now?", he seems to relay the message of just how people tend to let go and forget about the horrific aftermath of the devastating wars.
