These are questions from my textbook titled glencoe literature the reader's choice





11. explain how the use of similes and metaphors helps you better understand and appreciate the story.





12. How does crane use foreshadowing to help prepare the reader for future events? give specific examples.





13. (done!)





14. how does the statement ';impressed with the unconcern of the universe'; help you understand the story's theme?





15. (done!)

1. find three passages in the story that emphasize the power of nature over humans.





2. although the men realize that ultimately they are at the mercy of nature, all of them struggle to survive. how does each one's struggle affect himself and the fate of the group?
