Read the excerpt from “Tears of Autumn.” She had not befriended the other women in her cabin, for they had lain in their bunks f

or most of the voyage, too sick to be company to anyone. Each morning Hana had fled the close­ness of the sleeping quarters and spent most of the day huddled in a corner of the deck, listening to the lonely songs of some Russians also traveling to an alien land. How does this excerpt from "Tears of Autumn" develop the setting of the story? It demonstrates how lonely the trip is for Hana. It reveals how the stuffy cabin adds to Hana's anxiety. It reveals how long the journey to America is for Hana. It explains how small and cramped the ship is.

Answer:

A) It demonstrates how lonely the trip is for Hana.

Explanation:

“Tears of Autumn” is a story by Yoshiko Uchida (1921 – 1992), In which an orphan, young Japanese woman named Hana Omiya leaves her home (in a Japanese village) and travels to America for better life opportunities. The story is narrated in third person point of view. The theme of the story is "taking chances to improve one's life".

First option is correct because the phrases in the excerpt like,<em> </em><em>"not befriended the other women"</em><em> , </em><em>"huddled in a corner of the deck,"  </em>and<em> "the lonely songs"</em> show that the author is trying to present a lonely setting of Hana's trip.

Second option is not correct because this except does not tell us that the cabins were over-crowded.

Third option is not correct: Although we can infer that the journey is long, but the stress throughout the excerpt is on loneliness of the journey also foreshadowing loneliness in Hana's own life.

Fourth option is also not correct because the excerpt tells otherwise i.e the ship is not cramped but it is lonely.
