Answer: A. were starting to think the cat had gotten her tongue

Explanation:

An idiom is a sentence whose meaning cannot be inferred from the literal meanings of each word. The idiom "has the cat got your tongue?" is well-known and it is a question usually asked to someone who is silent and refuses to speak even when addressed.

Other famous idioms are:

to beat around the bush

to cut someone a slack

to pull somebody's leg

to be under the weather

Analyze the ways in which fear and suspense are introduced and maintained during this play’s developing plot. Consider how the s
ikadub [295]

Answer:

This question refers to the work Sorry, Wrong Number by Lucille Fletcher.

Explanation:

This work generates a lot of suspense in the reader. We as readers want to predict what is going to happen, who will be the woman they want to kill, who are the men who are talking, etc.

There are many factors in the story that create suspense. Music and sounds are part of this. For example, when Mrs. Agnes is listening to the peak of the conversation, the call drops.

<em>"GEORGE: Yes, a knife… it will be ok. The afterwards, I'll </em>

<em>remove the rings and the bracelets and the jewelry in the bureau </em>

<em>drawer because our client wishes it to look like a simple </em>

<em>robbery. Don’t worry, everything’s ok, I know… </em>

<em>SFX: </em><em>BUZZING SOUND AS PHONE DISCONNECTS. " </em>

Another thing that generates great despair in us readers is the reaction of the police, or rather the non-reaction:

As Agnes recounted the horrible conversation she had just overheard, the operator only replied:<em> "What number are you dialing?" , "What number did you call?" </em>

The suspense builds as Agnes can't get anyone to listen to her pleas to save a poor woman who is going to be murdered.

Then she begins to receive constant calls in which no one responds and begins to lose her mind and get really very nervous, which also makes us readers nervous.

Finally, and after all her pleas to save that woman, Mrs. Stevenson was the woman they were going to kill, and George finally does.
