Answer:

B. meetinghouse

Explanation:

Although nothing is in bold here, I'm assuming that this refers to the pronoun "its".

Pronouns are used to replace nouns or phrases previously mentioned in order to avoid repetition.

Here, basically, we have a voice announcing somewhere in the meeting house which silenced the din that filled meetinghouse's cavernous hall.

So now, looking at the full sentence, we can see that the pronoun "its" replaced the noun "meetinghouse".

The noun replaced with pronoun is called that pronoun's antecedent.

Allisa [31]

The structure of the story builds suspense by making the narrative into a quest.

Explanation:

The narrative uses well tested techniques of building suspense in On a mountain trail by Harry Perry.

The first example one can see is in the beginning when the author describes the particular difficulty of the quest for the top.

Thus starting medias res and then going back to give details.

The second example is that the narrator often employs descriptive passages just before a new development to draw out the moment.

This builds suspense even more in the text.

Anti-Semitism, sometimes called history’s oldest hatred, is hostility or prejudice against Jewish people. The Nazi Holocaust is history’s most extreme example of anti-Semitism. Anti-Semitism did not begin with Adolf Hitler: Anti-Semitic attitudes date back to ancient times. In much of Europe throughout the Middle Ages, Jewish people were denied citizenship and forced to live in ghettos

MrRa [10]

Answer:

A. This detail establishes that Gregor had another profession before becoming a salesman.

Explanation:

Option A is the correct answer. It actually establishes the author's purpose for including the detail about the protagonist in the text.

From the text, we discover that the author included the description just as he was describing the setting where Gregor was. The author mentioned the wash up breakfast that was on the table, about the hospital  and about Gregor's father who was reading newspaper. Then the author mentions the picture that hung on the wall. It was at this point that the information of the photograph informs the reader that Gregor had another profession before becoming a salesman.

Option A is the correct answer.
