Question

chapter 1 the way through the woods
1.refrence to the context :
Ql They Fear not men in the woods,
Because they see so few
a. Who is referred to as they?
b. Why do they not fear men?​

Answer 1

Answer:

A) Trees have been replanted and animals have returned. They no longer remember or fear the “men” that used to travel the path. The speaker appreciates this fact, but the text still speaks to a yearning to see the woods first hand.

B) The animals have no reason to fear “men” as there are so “few” passing through the area now. If the road still existed, this would not be the case.

If one entered into the woods at this time there might even be a detectable sound of a “horse’s feet” beating on the ground. They move without hesitation and without the need for a path.
