3 Colm, with dilated eyes, eagerly watched it making for the farther end of the lake. It meandered between tall bulrushes, its body black
and solid as stone against the graying water. Then as if it had sunk it was gone. The boy ran stealthily along the bank looking away from the
lake, pretending indifference. When he came opposite to where he had last seen the bird he stopped and peered through the sighing reeds
whose shadows streaked the water in a maze of black strokes. In front of him was a soddy islet guarded by the spears of sedge and
separated from the bank by a narrow channel of water. The water wasn't too deep-he could wade across with care.
How do the setting details in paragraph 3 help convey the theme of the story?
The spears of sedge around the islet imply that something must be protected.
The shadows of the reeds and the graying water make nature seem dark and dangerous.
The shallow water and isolation of the soddy islet implies that nature and animals should not be disturbed.
That a human could wade across the water shows the dominance of people over nature.
