Select the correct text in the passage. a subject is the topic of a literary work, while a theme is the author’s statement or perspective about the topic. which of these lines from stephen crane’s “the open boat” best reflects the subject of the excerpt? in disjointed sentences the cook and the correspondent argued as to the difference between a life-saving station and a house of refuge. the cook had said: "there's a house of refuge just north of the mosquito inlet light, and as soon as they see us, they'll come off in their boat and pick us up." "as soon as who see us? " said the correspondent. "the crew," said the cook. "houses of refuge don't have crews," said the correspondent. "as i understand them, they are only places where clothes and grub are stored for the benefit of shipwrecked people. they don't carry crews." "oh, yes, they do," said the cook. "no, they don't," said the correspondent. "well, we're not there yet, anyhow," said the oiler, in the stern. "well," said the cook, "perhaps it's not a house of refuge that i'm thinking of as being near mosquito inlet light. perhaps it's a life-saving station." "we're not there yet," said the oiler, in the stern. as the boat bounced from the top of each wave, the wind tore through the hair of the hatless men, and as the craft plopped her stern down again the spray slashed past them. the crest of each of these waves was a hill, from the top of which the men surveyed, for a moment, a broad tumultuous expanse; shining and wind-riven. it was probably splendid. it was probably glorious, this play of the free sea, wild with lights of emerald and white and amber.
