The right answer is "It forces readers to “grapple” with their own mortality."

King wants the reader to experience the same feeling as the character of his works. In the passage he describes a dangerous and frightening environment in which the character must walk and perceive its mortality, since the environment provides a feeling of possible death. King describes this environment so thoroughly that it makes the reader feel the same sense of character, a sense of danger, fear and mortality.

Which detail in the excerpt supports the idea that the narrator and his cousin spend a substantial amount of time together

Hi. You did not provide the story that your question refers to, nor do you present the excerpt that the question asks to be analyzed. This makes it impossible for your question to be answered. However, when searching for your question on the internet, I could find another question exactly like yours, which showed that it referred to "A Christmas Memory," a short story written by Truman Capote, but unfortunately, that question also didn't show the excerpt, which prevents me from being able to present you with an exact answer. However I will try to help you as best I can.

We can see that the narrator of this story spends a lot of time with his cousin, because they spend the entire Christmas day together, doing various activities. This narrator is called Buddy and in this story he tells how he and his cousin spent Christmas day talking, flying kites, decorating the Christmas tree and baking cakes to give to strangers on the streets. These activities made them spend a lot of time together and they loved it to the point of repeating them every year.

How does the narrator of history in the making develop the viewpoint that the Wright brothers make important advancements in tec

Murrr4er [49]

The narrator develops this point of view by showing that the Wright Brothers were pioneers in advancing technology.

We can arrive at this answer because:

The Wright Brothers created the first plane to achieve flight, after being catapulted, in America.
This achievement was created with a lot of effort, study, and dedication from the brothers.
This plane was a milestone in technological advancement worldwide and placed the brothers as pioneers of aviation, which placed them as one of the great names in technology.

This pioneering spirit and dedication to the creation of the plane was what the author of "History in the Making" used to create a point of view on the importance of the Wright Brothers in technology.
