Answer:
The fictional excerpt is more poetic than the nonfictional excerpt.
Explanation:
In the fictional passage about <em>Angel Agnes</em> from the chapter "Agnes saves a child but dies herself", Agnes is shown in a deep slumber. But the narrative voice uses the words <em>"wandering, or perhaps she was dreaming"</em>, which is poetic and even fairy-tale like. The further description about her appearance provides an image of something more ethereal than a normal, realistic image.
On the other hand,<em> The Summer of the Pestilence</em> provides a historical account of the Yellow fever and the effects it had on man. The passage deals with the realistic, even violent images of the effects of the disease, an unpleasant picture.
The two passages about death are presented in such a way that the fictional work is more poetic than the realistic / non fictional excerpt.

The most correct answer would therefore be A, because reversing the sentence this role would be possible.</span>
