Explanation:

- The passage discusses the contrast between the glorified image of war and its harsh reality, particularly as depicted in war poems.

- Blank no. 4 is about what war poems do to sentimental myths. They reveal or show the harsh realities soldiers face when myths are compared to reality.

- Exposing fits well here because it means uncovering or revealing the truth, which aligns with the idea of showing harsh realities.

- Hardening means becoming tough or resilient, which doesn't fit the context of revealing truths.

- Giving is unrelated to revealing or contrasting myths with realities.

- Being doesn't make sense in this context as it doesn't relate to revealing or showing.

?? Correct Answer: Exposing
