Answer:

This question requires a personal answer. I will give you an answer that you can use as an example to modify it and make your own.

Explanation:

 This question corresponds to the poem "My mother saw a dancing bear" by <em>Charles Causley.</em>

We must begin by clarifying that the word bruin is used to name bears, especially in texts addressed to children.

That could be the first reason. The author may have wanted his poem to be addressed to an audience of children. If we read the poem with attention we can see that the poem has a happy tone and that there are even children in it.

Another option could be that the author wanted to avoid repeating the word "bear" so he used another meaning.

Which is the cause and effect? 10 pts and need fast
zaharov [31]

The correct option is B) “A snowstorm threatens their lives and forces them to seek shelter.” The reason why Slateh and Aaron spend days in the haystack is because a snowstorm took Aaron by surprise when he was taking the goat to the town. Even though Aaron did not agree with taking the goat to the butcher, he was obeying his father's orders.  

Option C) is incorrect as it was not getting dark, it was the snowstorm that stopped him.

Option D) is also incorrect since Zlateh suspected that something wrong was happening but did not offer any resistance to move further.
