Answer:
C. The dentist realizes his power over the mayor in this situation.
Explanation:
The given excerpt is from the story <em>One of These Days</em> written by Gabriel García Márquez. The main character, the dentist, gets a visit from the mayor. At first, he doesn't want to admit him, but the mayor threatens to shoot him. He lets him in and extracts an abscessed tooth without anesthesia, telling him that he will <em>pay for twenty of (their) dead men</em>. It's apparent that the mayor has the most power in the city, threatens to shoot people, and shoots them sometimes as he likes. But in this scenario, it's the dentist who has the power, and he displays it without fear. He caused him pain and began ordering him around. The dentist knows that the mayor is a terrible person and probably does enjoy watching him cry, but the display of power is what is most important.
Thus, the correct option is C.
Answer:
The tension in this chapter is created by the mere fact of survival.
Explanation:
This scene is one of the most tense in the book. Katniss finds herself in front of something she was not aware of and she discovers as she goes.
She believes that the cornucopia would be a great feast or something like that and yet she realizes that the cornucopia is the key to survival. There, she and the other participants will find the weapons they need to win the hunger games, as well as things necessary to survive.
The scene is a great fight where people begin to die in front of Katniss until she realizes that she was also in danger and needed to move.
This is how she gets her bow and arrow and once she gets them she can walk away from the cornucopia.
"During the shop’s peak hours – from eight in the evening till around midnight – one could hardly hear oneself talk because of the boisterous chatters that went on."
