Question

We approach the clearing before the pond, and I take a deep breath. The benches encircling the water stand proudly, despite years of wear and a tumble of waste beneath them. This was Louisa's favorite spot to linger- light bouncing off the ripples, illuminating her face, I'd study the lines that had grown over her face, beautifying her in a way she'd never have allowed me to speak.

What role does the detail play in the story?
a. It shows the kind of people that the narrator has seen visiting the park.
b. It demonstrates how the narrator observes nature in the park.
c. It reveals a reason the narrator feels connected to the park
d. It emphasizes the way the narrator likes to relax at the park

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

B. because for a, it doesn't make sense since the detail does not talk about the actual character. c does not make sense either because the detail does not contain any emotions or feelings about how he feels connected. d does not make sense because the detail does not express anything about relaxing.

So therefore, B would be the best choice since also the detail demonstartes how the narrotor observes nature in the park.
