Select all the correct answers.

Which aspects of war are addressed in both excerpts from short stories by Guy de Maupassant?
1.)Deception is often a side effect of war.
2.)Common people are often the victims of war.
3.)War affects women as profoundly as it affects men.
4.)Enemy combatants can still trust one another.
5.)Soldiers often take advantage of civilian women.
Number two is wrong

Answer 1

Answer: 1) Deception is often a side effect of war and 3) War affects women as profoundly as it affects men.

Step-by-step explanation: In both excerpts, we see how war has made women become as murderous as soldiers can be, and how they use deception as a weapon, tricking others into a false sense of safeness. Options 3 and 5 are discarded because these women are not portrayed as the victims in these excerpts, while option 4 is not suggested in any way.

Answer 2

The correct answer is:

1). Deception is a side effect of war.

This because on both of Guy´s short stories, he talks about how the innocence of women can mislead and deceive the enemy forces;

3). War affects women as profoundly as men.

Since the negative effects of war can can alter the women's brain due the post traumatic stress and deteriorate their behavior.
