Answer:
D. the snail’s path
Explanation:
<u>In the passage, the author describes the path of the snail in the most precise details. He describes the glimmering of the path (shiny ribbon) and the way it is traced on the surface of the sand. </u><u> He uses the most detailed and descriptive words when talking about the path itself. </u>
He uses this to proves to the reader how clear the water is, to show in what little details the path can be seen through the water. Yet, the most precise words are used for the path itself, and not the water.
The Parting of Lot and Abraham is about their literal parting - Abraham took his family to Canaan, as God wanted him to, whereas Lot went to Sodom, and defied God's wishes. Now, having this in mind, maybe this mosaic does symbolize B. heaven, as Abraham and his family would go to heaven eventually, because they obeyed God's orders and wishes.
I think the answer is B. Observing because normally when a child shares ideas verbally or through symbolic representation they often observe others.
