<u>The following are the correct answers to each question</u>:
<u>Question 1: Option C.</u> The descriptive details reveal the excitement of the crowd.
<u>Question 2: Option A.</u> The passage uses dialogue to show how Mr. Frank feels. His words reveal his desire to protect Anne from reality.
Explanation:
The descriptive details on the paragraph of question 1 allow sensory recreations of the whole experience of a swimming race event. The writer uses the descriptive details to reveal the excitement of the crowd, with phrases such as :"Spectators slid to the front of their chairs; many rose."
The paragraph from question 2 is from "The Diary of a Young girl" and is a dialogue between Anne and her father. The use of a dialogue helps to portrait how Mr. Frank feels about the situation his and his family are living, and how he wants to protect Anne from that reality. He says to her not to worry, that he will take care of everything and how she just must enjoy her carefree life.
I would say that the sentence which uses a vocabulary word wrong is C) The melancholy scene brought a chill cadence to the back of my neck.
Cadence is a rhythm, or a sequence of notes.
