Answer:

The reader does not know why Diane is carrying a brain.

Explanation:

Suspense or tension in a story is when the readers are unsure about what the events in the story will be like. The feeling of not knowing what will happen, along with the eagerness to see what will happen is known as suspense.

In the given passage from "A Drop in the Bucket", the reader knows that Diane's mother is in the room. This story is about Diane France, a famous forensic anthropologist who deals with bones to specify and determine their causes of death. So, when she returned to the room with the brain in the bucket, we, along with her mother, are shocked to actually see a brain in a bucket. It may be common for Diane to deal with these things but it certainly isn't for us and her mother. And the suspense is further heightened when we don't know why she is carrying a brain like it is nothing unusual.

Thus, the correct answer is the last option.

Vesna [10]

Answer:

remember your first bicycle?

i was so happy, so eager to learn,

i remember going through so much pain

falling on my face, picked up by my dad

as i cried and he kissed my feet saying

'there, it's all good now'

but then the bicycle ended up being my life

for a few short years

but then it is too small, and i was too big

i have grown, and it hadn't.

so i said goodbye and put it on the corner of the garage.

bought a brand new one.

i realize now, it's kind of like you and me.

you have grown, back then, and i hadn't.

you've made other friends, and i hadn't.
