Answer: B. Plant life cannot grow along the shoreline.

Explanation:

In the extract from Beyond the Wall: Essays from the Outside, Edward Abbey, the author, argues that it is because of the dam that plant life is dead. He says that due to the fluctuations in the water level, the plants either die from thirst or get drowned. This to him, is a stark contrast to when the area used to be full of plant life which also brought animal life meaning that there was an abundance of both fauna and Flora.

Now instead, the area is barren and Edward contends that it would therefore had been better that the dam was not built at all than it was built and effected the aforementioned.

What is the overall tone of the watsons go to Birmingham
slamgirl [31]

k

Explanation:

There are different tones in this novel. At times it is humorous and at others it is reflective. Byron comes up with some pretty funny lines like,

"I sure wish someone would come clean and tell me who my real folks was, there just ain't no way in hell two people as ugly as your momma and daddy could ever have a child as fine as me!"

At other times the tone is brutally honest and reflective,

"I've often told you that as Negroes the world is many times a hostile place for us." I saw Mr. Alums walking back and forth whacking a yardstick in his hand. "I've pointed out time and time again how vital it is that one be able to read well."

Sometimes it mixes and varies between tones.. sometimes comedic or reflective very changing, like every long story.
