Read the passage from "by the waters of babylon.”

my father is a priest; i am the son of a priest. i have been in the dead places near us, with my father—at first, i was afraid. when my father went into the house to search for the metal, i stood by the door and my heart felt small and weak. it was a dead man's house, a spirit house. it did not have the smell of man, though there were old bones in a corner. but it is not fitting that a priest's son should show fear. i looked at the bones in the shadow and kept my voice still.

what does the narrator’s response to the setting reveal about his character?

by describing the details of a spirit house, he reveals why he gives in to his fear.
because he is not able to show fear, he wishes that he were not a priest’s son.
due to his upbringing, we see that he is prepared for whatever the future holds.
in describing his past, he shows that he will live up to his father’s expectations. (20 pts)
