In what way is this passage not similar to the passage from “an episode of war”? bullets began to whistle among the branches and nip at the trees. twigs and leaves came sailing down. it was as if a thousand axes, wee and invisible, were being wielded. many of the men were constantly dodging and ducking their heads. the lieutenant of the youth's company was shot in the hand. he began to swear so wondrously that a nervous laugh went along the regimental line. the officer's profanity sounded conventional. it relieved the tightened senses of the new men. it was as if he had hit his fingers with a tack hammer at home. he held the wounded member carefully away from his side so that the blood would not drip upon his trousers. the captain of the company, tucking his sword under his arm, produced a handkerchief and began to bind with it the lieutenant's wound. and they disputed as to how the binding should be done.
a. both episodes involve a lieutenant being shot
b. both episodes take place during a war
c. both episodes cause the witnessing soldiers to laugh
d. both episodes involve someone to bandage a lieutenant
