What does the following passage (paragraph 1) mainly reveal?
There is nothing to cook with, hence I have nothing to do, and, therefore, have time to write. Such days will come here that we have to see our
wounded men fed with dry bread and poor coffee; and I can tell you it is hard to witness some cursing for food, some praying for it. It seems to b
no one's fault but will happen.
A. Hancock has been too busy to write.
B. The wounded men are suffering further because of a lack of food.
C. Hancock wishes she had a goose to roast for the infirm.
D. Hancock admires the men who pray for food, rather than curse for it.

Sagot :

Answer: B. The wounded men are suffering further because of a lack of food.

Explanation:

Hancock, who is the speaker in this passage, notes that some days they will have nothing to cook with such that they have to feed their men with dry bread and poor coffee instead of proper food.

These men were already wounded and so were already suffering. A lack of food will make them suffer even more. This is why Hancock notes that some will curse and some will pray because that is how they will react to the further suffering.
