A serpent does things for a reason, just like the rest of us do. The serpent is a snake, and a snake is a worm. The worm eats into the core of an apple or fruit, and the fruit is forbidden. Those are the actions of a serpent. Eve does not know why this beast is talking. This is significant because it seems that Eve is still looking for a reason why he can speak. She is also wondering why he'd have the need to speak, and why is he speaking now. The beast is very subtle. He knew what he was trying to do and his actions were making Eve very curious.
