Select the two best answers from "the oasis: africa" that support the central idea that nature can be severe and unkind. question 7 options: "sweating in the heat, we had lost the whole day, dreading to be buried alive in the drifting sand."

"Sweating in the heat, we had lost the whole day, dreading to be buried alive in the drifting sand."  

"Sand in the scanty food, sand in the brackish water--water that was drunk lukewarm from a clammy, loathsome water skin."  

These two quotes show that nature can be severe and unkind. In the first quote, the speaker talks about the severity of the heat and concerns about the drifting sand burying them alive. The second quote shows the sand's ability to get into everything and the unclean water.

"Lulled by the soft music of the brook, in infinite content, I sank back on to the soft carpets, and was soon in a dreamless slumber.""Besides, the infidel was known to carry money, a sum that camp-fire talk had inflated to large proportions."  These quote are NOT correct because the first one about the brook is calming and peaceful. It does not show the severity or unkindness of nature. The second quote has nothing to do with nature. It describes the infidel.
