Question

How does Bierce introduce the theme “time can be subjective”?

He gives a detailed description of the slow sound Farquhar’s watch makes as it ticks.


He provides a description of the fast-moving water in which Farquhar finds himself.

Answer 1

b is the correct answer because he does give detailed description .

Answer 2

The best answer out of the three is b. He gives a detailed description of the slow sound Farquhar's watch makes as it ticks.

"Its reoccurence was regular, but as slow as the tolling of a death knell."

"The intervals of silence grew progressively longer; the delays became maddening."
