40. which passage would best support an analysis based on the marxist criticism perspective? they turned and saw me. “morning,” said the older man. his face was neither friendly nor unfriendly. “morning, sir,” i said. “morning,” said the young man. the water was slowly drying on their faces as i came close i saw that she carried a baby in a crooked arm and the baby was nursing, its head under her waist out of the cold. the mother moved about, poking the fire, shifting the rusty lids of the stove to make a greater draft, opening the oven door; and all the time the baby was nursing, but that didn’t interfere with the mother’s work, not with the gracefulness of her movements.

Answer

Brief Explanations:

Marxist criticism focuses on class - struggle, economic factors, and the impact of capitalism on society. Neither of the given passages directly relate to Marxist themes such as class conflict, economic exploitation, or the role of the proletariat and bourgeoisie. However, if we had to choose, we'd look for elements that might imply social or economic conditions. The second passage with the mother's actions could potentially be seen in the context of the working - class struggle to provide for their children in difficult circumstances, though it's a very weak connection.

Answer:

There is no ideal passage here, but if forced, the second passage about the mother with the baby.
