The correct answer is A.
The author does not allude the visitor as being Herbert. He merely call it "the thing outside". Therefore, this is not a way the author creates suspense in the story.
The rest of the options: the description of the scraping, the echoes of the knocks, and the difficulty to find the object that was needed, are all elements that help build up suspense in this passage.
Answer:
A (the first answer)
Explanation:
The main idea of this paragraph is that the students attending schools with mandatory uniform policies experience less pressure than do students who
must choose their wardrobes. So, the author is FOR mandatory uniform policies
With this information, we want evidence that supports the main idea.
Option B is just a statement that explains how if parents want to exempt their children from uniforms, they need to talk to the administration.
Option C is just a statistic that states the number of students that had uniforms.
And Option D is, again, just a statement that doesn't support the main idea.
So the correct answer is A.
