"click! " that's the sound of safety. that's the
sound of survival. that's the sound of a seat belt
locking in place. seat belts save lives and that's a
fact. that's why i don't drive anywhere until
mine is on tight. choosing to wear your seat belt
is a simple as choosing between life and death.
which one do you choose?
think about it. when you're driving in a car, you
may be going 60 mph or faster. that car is
zipping down the road. then somebody ahead of
you locks up his or her brakes. your driver
doesn't have time to stop. the car that you are in
crashes. your car was going 60 miles per hour.
now it has suddenly stopped. your body,
however, is still going 60 mph. what's going to
stop your body? will it be the windshield or
your seat belt? every time that you get into a car
you make that choice. i choose the seat belt.
why does the author write about driving in a car in the second paragraph? what is his purpose?
refer to the text in your explanation. explain in 1 paragraph

At first i was afraid to approach him—then the fear left me. he was sitting looking out over the city—he was dressed in the clothes of the gods. his age was neither young nor old—i could not tell his age. but there was wisdom in his face and great sadness. you could see that he would have not run away. he had sat at his window, watching his city die—then he himself had died. but it is better to lose one's life than one's spirit—and you could see from the face that his spirit had not been lost. i knew, that, if i touched him, he would fall into dust—and yet, there was something unconquered in the face. how does the conflict at the beginning of the paragraph move the plot forward? the narrator realizes that he is scared of the gods. the narrator realizes that he distrusts the spirits the narrator realizes that the god was a man. the narrator realizes that he is powerful like the gods.
