Read this passage from “the pedestrian” by ray bradbury:
he would stand upon the corner of an intersection and peer down long moonlit avenues of sidewalk in four directions, deciding which way to go, but really made no difference; he was alone in this world of a. d. 2053, or as good as alone, and with a final decision made, a path selected, he would stride off, sending patterns of frosty air before him like the smoke of a cigar.
which sentence best describes the overall impact of the setting?
a. the absence of people suggests that something is very wrong with society.
b. the many weeds in the pavement imply that the sidewalks are no longer maintained.
c. the man’s breath is compared to cigar smoke, which is a simile.
