Most likely passage for the test:
Now the soldiers he smiled at are most of 'em dead,
And we're cursing his staff for incompetent swine.
"He's a cheery old card," grunted Harry to Jack
As they slogged up to Arras with rifle and pack.
Context: The men don't like the general. The general is cheery to them, seemingly happy to get them killed, as he does.
