Michael Useem creates suspense immediately in the beginning of the narrative. He has an astronaut announce that their mission was in need for help. The author furthermore does not end his first page without describing a technical difficulty occurring. The most suspenseful part was when Liebergot and Kranz were trying to help the astronauts survive. Their dialogue stressed to the LEM their instructions were needed to be done right away. The descriptions of the author about oxygen loss also helped readers feel tense emotions.

Answer:

Check below for the answer and explanation.

Explanation:

The author, in these two excerpts, describes the consequence of sin and disobedience to the creator. Lucifer and Adam utterly fell from grace and the positions of honor that they were despite the uniqueness that surrounded their existences. This is as a result of their acts of unfaithfulness and insubordination unto God.

In both excerpts, the author describes Lucifer and Adam as specially and uniquely made. Concerning Lucifer, he said, " ...O Lucifer, brightest of angels all". He describes Adam as "...made by God's own finger, And not begotten of man's unclean seed", "...and had power at need Over all Paradise".  

The author goes further to explain how great the punishments of their disobedience unto God were. Lucifer fell into hell and became Satan. "... yet he fell though sin Down into hell, and he is yet therein". He describes Lucifer's misery as perpetual, the one he will never escape from. "Now thou art Satan, and canst never win Out of thy miseries; how great thy fall!" Adam also fell from the position of high esteem that he was placed and was driven out of his beautiful abode, Eden. This is because he disobeyed the decree of the creator, similar to the act of Lucifer. " Than he None ever on earth stood higher, till his deed Drove him to labour, Hell and misery."
