Explanation:

In the story "Hills Like White Elephants," we encounter a couple who is discussing the possibility of an operation (It is likely that they are talking about a termination of pregnancy). However, it is clear that they do not understand each other. One example is the fact that the woman refers to the mountains as "white elephants." This is a reference to the baby she is carrying. However, the man says that he cannot know this, because he has never seen one. This not only shows that the couple thinks very differently, but it also shows that the man is not ready to commit to anything, whether this is an opinion or a relationship.
