The passage best shows how the conflict in the story is resolved (as it kind of has that feeling). Therefore, the passage is from the resolution.
Answer:
C). Makes the reader want to find out what happens next.
Explanation:
The given excerpt from 'Heart of a Samurai'(assumed) develops suspense by presenting the events in a manner that leaves the readers puzzled and uncertain about 'what would happen next.' The <u>situation of impending danger </u>on Manjiro when 'two boats move towards the island and his heart beat deep in his stomach and weak limbs feeling numb' <u>develops a feeling of tension as well as empathy among the readers towards the character</u>. The <u>further details like 'he might faint...croaked..boats!..rescue!' takes the excitement and anxiousness at the peak</u>. Therefore, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.
In this situation, credited means "to pay respect to".
Knowing this, the sentence "Lily's parents credited her for her efforts at finding a summer job" can be changed to "Lily's parents [paid respect to] her for her efforts at finding a summer job" and the sentence still makes sense.
What other sentence can you replace the word credited with the phrase "paid respect to" and it will still make sense?
