In Of Mice and Men, what is most likely the author's reason for including the
following exchange (paragraphs 20-23)?
"Course you did. Well, look. Lennie-if you jus' happen to get in trouble like you
always done before, I want you to come right here an' hide in the brush."
"Hide in the brush," said Lennie slowly.
"Hide in the brush till I come for you. Can you remember that?"
"Sure I can, George. Hide in the brush till you come."
a) To foreshadow something that will happen later.
Ob) To make clear that George is annoyed with Lennie
c) To make George seem like he's overreacting
d) To demonstrate the differences between the two men

A because George wants to protect Lennie from the harm that he has done and its foreshadowing that something bad will happen that will result with Lennie having to hide in that spot.

yea and yea x.x i love them =^-^=

edwards uses the phrase "o who can express what the state of a soul in such circumstances is! " in order to illustrate that this type of suffering is unimaginable. the word "express" denoted that the state of a suffering soul is required to be described by any person, but it would not happen because no one can imagine how this suffering is felt.  

-show what might happen if the reader disobeys edwards is not correct because this is described trhough the text, not by the phrase used.

-describe what endless suffering looks and feels like is not correct because this description might be the porpuse of the excerpt provided, not the porpuse of using the phrase during the writting.

-prove that few people have survived limitless suffering is not correct because it is implied that the soul of a person is already suffering and doesn't have any way to escape.
