Answer:

is in the pic and here also

Explanation:

The narrator is a soldier, serving with the Republican forces in the Spanish Civil War. It's Easter Sunday, and the enemy Fascists are rapidly approaching. Numerous refugees are making their way to safety across the pontoon bridge to the other side of the river. In the midst of all this bustle and chaos, an old man sits down by the side of a dusty road. It seems that he has no place to go; moreover, he doesn't appear to have any desire to leave in any case. He is both literally and spiritually homeless; he doesn't belong anywhere. The narrator senses this, which is why he takes pity on him. He urges the old man to hitch a ride aboard a truck heading for Tortosa, but still he won't move.

In his own way, the old man has chosen his fate by staying put at the side of the road. The long journey he's already traveled—twelve kilometers—symbolizes the life's journey he's made over the course of seventy-six long years. His life, like the journey he's made on the road, will soon be at an end. The narrator pities him for what he sees as his incredible bad luck—worse luck than the animals he was forced to leave behind. Yet the old man has chosen to end his life in his own way, so whether the narrator's pity is entirely appropriate is a matter of conjecture.
