Answer:
What exemplifies these men as heroes, as described by Hemingway, is:
D. They act casually and go about regular business, such as smoking, while actually in grave danger.
Explanation:
"A Farewell to Arms" is a novel by author Ernest Hemingway narrated from a first-person perspective. The narrator is Frederic Henry, an American lieutenant who is serving in Italy during the first World War.
This particular excerpt shows how the men are able to keep a cool head even though they know an attack is about to happen. That is what distinguishes heroes from those they protect. While regular people would feel nervous or scared, would run away to escape danger, heroes are able to remain calm. To show that, Hemingway describes how easily they go about regular business, such as smoking, as if danger is not lurking.
It seems for Sanders that he should not feel guilty at all, because the men he had in his minds were not the same men as the daughters or other complaining women had in their minds of their father and other men, but he regrets not understanding these women complains at the time in the end of the text.
As in his childhood he grew with hard work men around him and women which would enjoy life in the house, caring for babies and going to supermarket he could not have the same view as the women that accused men of having privileged lives, because he could not even imagine the life of men, as bankers or architects, that were served by women and many times kept them in the house as in a prision, or abandoned them.
He is not a prosecutor as he closes the text saying “ I wasn't an enemy, in fact or in feeling. I was an ally ”.
