3 0
In the opening scene, death is trying to gain the reader's trust by talking to him/her as if it were a human being. The reader becomes confused at the beginning and then starts to accept the fact that death is a natural occurrence.
Death is showing the reader that it was very busy during World War II.
By the end of this scene, death managed to introduce itself as a main character and a reliable narrator for the book.

This question is missing the options. I've found them online. They are the following:

Question: In the above excerpt, which words best establish immediacy?

A) "White men have been known to encourage slaves to escape."

B) "… that I should be free."

C) "I pretended not to be interested in what they said."

D) There is no immediacy.

Answer:

The words that best establish immediacy are:

B) "… that I should be free."

Explanation:

<u>By definition, immediacy is the quality of creating excitement and a sense of urgency by involving someone instantly. Now, imagine being a slave and wishing nothing more than freedom. If someone told you to run away "...that [you] should be free," can you imagine how you would feel? The excitement this would bring? The urgency to escape and finally get rid of the cruelties done to you? For that reason, letter B is the best option. "...that I should be free" are the words that create a sense of immediacy.</u>
