Bierce uses the method to draw out a single moment in the life of the person to a long drawn introspection on life.

Explanation:

The Incident at Owl Creek Bridge by Bierce is one of the great short stories of all time.

It uses the last instant of a life of a solider who is sentenced to death for his introspection on life and his hope of escaping the ordeal.

This is drawn out in suspense by the methodical writing style of the writer who draws out the moment into a story that we start believing that he has actually escaped.

By the time the reality hits us the, he is already dead.

B - Petroleum

Wood was one of the first energy sources, way before the nineteenth century so you can rule that choice out.

Nuclear Energy is more advanced and closer to the twentieth century so you can also rule that out.

And coal was before petroleum, around mid to late eighteenth century possibly.

Hope this helps!

Usimov [2.4K]

I would choose the letter "from".

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

I select the letter 'from' John Redfield to his “Brothers and Sisters” in Harper's Ferry on October 14, 1862. This letter caught my attention instantly because he's talking about the killing of their captain, which then made him have to stand up and defend for long hours.

I was also more attentive in the fact that "It seems very difficult to be a soldier," then he says "but after all I have to be one," as if he wasn't very pleased to be fighting, so he might have been there because he was enlisted and failed to pay the $300 to stop catering.

I feel that during those days it was very rigid and inequitable that wealthy people didn't have to fight, but they made those who couldn't pay the debt go to war. For those who were forced to give their lives for those who were seen as "strong in life and wealth," I feel very sad and heartbroken.
