Elli Vossen and Jo Koophuis were working across from me in the office. Sometime between eleven and twelve o'clock, I looked up.

There in the doorway stood a man in civilian clothes. I hadn't heard the door. He was holding a revolver, pointing it at us. He came in. "Stay put," he said in Dutch. "Don't move." How does Miep build suspense in this passage?
by using the personal pronoun “I” to tell her tale
by giving specific details about the time of day
by recounting the events as they happened
by describing the layout of the building

Answer: The right answer is "by recounting the events as they happened."

Explanation: The use of the pronoun "I" makes the narration more personal and arguably more engaging, but it does not necessarily build suspense. In addition, Miep Gies is not providing the reader with detailed information about the office or the time of the day - quite the opposite, she is being rather sparing in her description. However, she is recounting the events as they happened, chronologically, and she is doing it in an almost telegraphic way, using short sentences with just the necessary, unambiguous, words, and using direct speech to quote the exact words that were spoken by the man with the gun.

Without heroes, we cannot have monsters. If there were no monsters to cause problems, we would have no need for superheroes. The only reason heroes are present is because they feel that it is their duty to fight off the monsters, and protect humankind from evil.


Here is a part you can use. :)

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

Similarities, they both include monsters like frankinstein, and spooky situations, the difference is that the article gives more details and the pictures are just images that let you think about what is shown. And it talks about dc and marvel so im assuming its talking about the creation of those topics.
