Answer:

B. Suspenseful

Explanation:

One resource in writing as an effective way to engage the reader is to built apprehension in the minds of the readers. Creating suspense allows the reader to experiment feelings of empathy, reader concern and provide the settings for impending danger and escalating tension. In this case the phrase "ruthless and utter destruction" creates suspense because of not knowing exactly how the destruction methods would be, but we know they are ruthless.

The only answer that even comes close is suspenseful. It would have to be because you would be in suspense wondering how ruthless and utter destruction occurred and what was destroyed.

Read the excerpt from Warriors Don't Cry.

The announcer said it was 7:55 as Mama squeezed into a parking space, and we settled ourselves quietly for a moment, trying to identify the buzzing noise that seemed as if it were all around us. It resembled the sound of crowds at my high school football games. But how could that be? The announcer said there was a crowd, but surely it couldn't be that big.

Which word from the excerpt creates mood?

a.settled

b.buzzing

c.resembled

d.games

Answer:

b. Buzzing

Explanation:

From the passage, narrator seems amazed at how packed the stadium was, as there was barely any parking space and how they heard a buzzing noise that was as if it was "all around us". The narrator also voiced out that the announcer said there was a crowd, but surely she did not expect it to be that big to create that buzzing sound.

Therefore, the word that creates mood from the excerpt is buzzing because it shows how lively and loud the place was.

What does the word clamoured likes mean in the sentence
PolarNik [594]

(It means they're making loud shouts as they ask for ice cream.) "Clamor" comes from the same Latin root as some other words you already know: "exclaim" and "claim." ... "But the word 'clamor' doesn't add any meaning to the sentence from the story. Why didn't Poe just write, 'I replied to the yells'?"

hope that i helped :)
