“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? they indicate that passini is naive about the ways of war. they indicate that passini is guided by his emotions. they indicate that passini feels passionately about his beliefs. they indicate that passini is the main protagonist.

The answer is:  They indicate that Passini feels passionately about his beliefs.

From the dialogue between Passini and Tenente, readers can infer that Passini took a more realistic view on the current warring state compared to Tenente's naive outlook.

We can know a character is passionate about a certain belief if that character took his/her time to fully explain the reasoning behind the belief to someone who initially resist the idea. This is what Passini did to Tenente after Tenente conveys that he believed that there would be an end to the war.

it ends with a marriage, but also with prospero giving up his power.

the tempest is a play written by william shakespeare between 1610-1611, it narrates the story of prospero a magician that sets a storm to wreck a ship, this sets the story to kill the king of naples. while it is a romantic style play, it isn´t traditional because of the ending, it end with the marriage and the magician giving up his powers.

(you didn't attach a copy of the poem, but i'm answering as best as i can)

since a simile compares two unlike things using like or as, it kind of gives an item the ability to do something it can't.

example: "the player was like a tiger on the field"

in this sentence, the simile conveys the idea that the player was fast and strong, like a tiger.
