In paragraph three of "Music and the Brain," the author writes that "Scientists believe there is <u>mounting evidence</u> to show that early musical training can improve brain function." The use of mounting evidence is used to show that there is a lot of evidence to show that when someone learns to play an instrument or sing at an early age will have greater brain function. This evidence is noted earlier in paragraph three.

When something "adds to mounting evidence" it means that it is growing rapidly, increasing, or the evidence that already exists is extensive and this new piece of information is added to that already established evidence pile. It supports it further.

Answer:

"Under the astonished, wide-eyed moon, with the fires casting strange shadows upon these towering figures, I am rather inclined to believe him."

Explanation:

The use of the words "astonished" and "wide-eyed" that are used to describe the non-human presence of the moon creates a feeling of wonder. It depicts a scene in which the moon is large (wide-eyed) and beautiful (astonished). This and the description of the fires and their shadows creates an almost magical scenario to help the reader envision what the narrator is seeing. The personification aids in this, allowing us to understand how the narrator <em>feels</em> as well (wonder).

The words "casting upon" can also be considered personification, but it is not relevant in this case.
