Read this excerpt from “Hills Like White Elephants” and answer the question.

The woman brought two glasses of beer and two felt pads. She put the felt pads and the beer glass on the table and looked at the man and the girl. The girl was looking off at the line of hills. They were white in the sun and the country was brown and dry.

“They look like white elephants,” she said.

“I’ve never seen one,” the man drank his beer.

“No, you wouldn't have.”

She wishes that he was more responsive.
She divulges her disdain of his superficiality.
She is mindful of his lack of sophistication.
