Answer:
The statement which best describes the similarity between these versions is:
B. Both versions impart setting details through colorful description.
Explanation:
H. G. Wells was an English author (1866-1946) who wrote the famous novel "War of the Worlds," in which martians invade the Earth. As we know, the novel was adapted and broadcast via radio in 1938 to sound as if it were news bulletins. Allegedly, some people panicked while listening to the radio, truly believing the planet was under attack. However, we now know it was not a generalized panic.
Both excerpts give a colorful, vivid description of the scene before the narrator's eyes. Word choice makes it possible for readers, in the first case, and listeners, in the second, to really see, hear, or even feel the same things as the narrator. With the first excerpt, we can see the person who fell into the pit trying to leave it, only to slip back and then be dragged by some mysterious creature. With the second passage, we can see the cars, the police, the headlights, and finally the shadows of the people who have approached the object that fell from the sky.
