A snake coiled and ready to strike would be an amazing scene ending that wants to present a symbol for increasing tension. Quiet people and dark cities are brooding, not very full of tension, while a church in a wilderness also represents something else.

Answer:

A snake coiled and ready to strike

Explanation:

When the author wants to use a symbol to increase tension, this author must write a situation that makes the reader apprehensive and curious. Following this reasoning, the only phrase that leaves the reader apprehensive is "A snake coiled and ready to attack."

You see, a snake's attack is something that creates apprehension, fear, and tension. For that reason, this would be a good symbol for the author to increase the tension at the end of the scene.

Into the Mist
Kamila [148]

Answer:

The authors of these two passages achieve their purposes in the following manner:

A. The author of "Film Flop" convinces readers of his opinion about a movie, while the author of "Into the Mist" entertains readers by narrating a story.

Explanation:

The two passages show completely different types of texts. The first passage presents the author's opinion. He talks about a certain movie, compares it to the books that gave birth to it, and concludes that the movie is a waste of time and money since it lacks depth. On the other hand, the second passage is a narrative. The author is telling us a story rather than presenting an opinion. The word choice and tone are less direct, their purpose being to describe the setting and the character's actions and thoughts vividly. With that in mind, we can safely choose letter A as the correct option:

A. The author of "Film Flop" convinces readers of his opinion about a movie, while the author of "Into the Mist" entertains readers by narrating a story.
