In this chapter, the main focus was that Jonny died which caused Dally to get out of control and get killed by the cops.
On page 131, it states “But I knew that was what he wanted, even as the lot echoed with the cracks of shots, even as I begged silently--- Please, not him... not him and Johnny both ---I knew he would be dead, because Dally Winston wanted to be dead and he always got what he wanted”
This was important because we are showed how Dally is affected by Jonny’s death and how this pushed him to his own death.

Explanation:
Ambiguity can be defined as a stated that has more meaning than one.
<u>The phrase that reflects the ambiguity in the excerpt is the first option that states </u><em><u>"I started inventing things, and then I couldn't stop, like beavers."</u></em>
The phrase is ambiguous because the narrator is trying to say that just like beavers never stop getting tired of chewing hardwoods because of new growing teeth, he is never tired of inventing things. When the narrator started inventing things he could not stop just like a beaver does not stop.
So, the correct option is the first one.
