Read the excerpt from a rumor of war. by autumn, what had begun as an adventurous expedition had turned into an exhausting, indecisive war of attrition in which we fought for no cause other than our own survival. based on the excerpt, the narrator understands that he has a specific responsibility but is frightened to be a part of the war effort. understands how important wars can be to a culture after he experiences one firsthand. believes there are instances when violence is a necessary evil, despite its unpleasantness. believes the reasons for fighting become muted over time and eventually all that matters is staying alive

believes the reasons for fighting become muted over time and eventually all that matters is staying alive

The excerpt clearly shows that there is a change in the narrator. It uses the phrases "had begun" and "had turned" to show the difference between before and after. He says that at first is was "an adventurous expedition" but by the end "we fought for...our own survival." The excerpt does not show that the narrator is fearful, that violence is a necessary evil, or the importance of war. The best answer that shows the narrator's change in the excerpt is that the reasons for fighting become muted and staying alive is all that matters.

believes the reasons for fighting become muted over time and eventually all that matters is staying alive

yeah, i think its a good thing what do you think?
