Question

In chapter 21 of The First Men in the Moon, Mr. Bedford remarks, “I was the sole survivor, and that was all.” Given what you have learned in chapters 22 and 23, why do you think Mr. Bedford declares in chapter 21 that Mr. Cavor is dead? Is it an innocent assumption, or are there other motives involved? Explain your opinion, using details from the text as support.

Answer 1

I believe Mr Bedford survived as it said in the text that “I was the soul survivor” and it also must of meant that he was the only one who survived so that must mean mr Cavor is either dead or left behind.
