Read the excerpt from Hemingway's A Farewell to Arms.
"Tenente," Passini said. "We understand you let us talk. Listen. There is nothing as bad as war. We in the auto-
ambulance cannot even realize at all how bad it is. When people realize how bad it is they cannot do anything to stop
it because they go crazy. There are some people who never realize. There are people who are afraid of their officers.
It is with them the war is made."
"I know it is bad but we must finish it."
"It doesn't finish. There is no finish to a war
"Yes there is."
Passini shook his head.
"War is not won by victory. What if we take San Gabriele? What if we take the Carso and Monfalcome and Trieste?
Where are we then? Did you see all the far mountains to-day? Do you think we could take all them too? Only if the
Austrians stop fighting. One side must stop fighting. Why don't we stop fighting? If they come down into Italy they will
get tired and go away. They have their own country. But no, instead there is a war."
Which best describes the effect of Passini's long pieces of dialogue?

1) earth's crust is made up of relatively rigid plates that ride atop earth's hot, semiliquid mantle. (2) the plates are called tectonic because they're in constant motion. (3) they can move because earth's mantle is a very hot and semiliquid fluid called magma. (4) volcanoes are a result of magma rising up or erupting through a plate, particularly where plate boundaries are moving against each other. (5) also, when plates slide against each other, causing friction along adjacent plate boundaries, earthquakes frequently occur. (6) therefore, we often find volcanoes and earthquakes along plate boundaries. (7) plates may also collide. (8) when that happens, mountain ranges are formed. (9) for example, the collision of the plate carrying the indian subcontinent created the himalayan mountains when it collided with the asian plate. which statement about this paragraph is accurate?

Buckminster boy. she glared at him. "lizzie, i swear to you, as sure as i'm standing right here—that's a lie. every bit of it. every single bit." "my granddaddy said it was a lie, too." she leaned her head to one side and looked at him steadily. "so why haven't you been down to the island? " "so only you get to ask questions now? " "yes." she waited. "i haven't been down to the island because my father believes that you were using me to you stay on malaga island." "well," she said slowly. "well." "i didn't believe it, either." the sea breeze lay at their feet panting, hoping they would play with it again. based on what turner and lizzie say, which is the best conclusion that can be drawn? they are angered by the lies the adults have been spreading. neither of them is able to fully trust what the other is claiming. each trusts the other and cares a great deal about their friendship. both are worried about the troubles their friendship may bring.
