Answer:

The above excerpt is a good example of the many storytelling devices used in 1001 Nights except surprise ending.

Explanation:

<u>The excerpt we are analyzing here does have elements of repetition, dialogue and recurring theme. However, it is not a good example of surprise ending, and the reason for that is very simple. </u>Take a look at how the excerpt ends:

<em>The porter was so dazzled he could hardly believe that he heard her aright, but he shouldered his basket in hot haste, saying in himself, "O day of good luck! O day of Allah's grace!" and walked after her till she stopped at the door of a house.</em>

<u>This is not a proper ending. As a matter of fact, this is the beginning of the story. Readers are left expecting, wondering what happens to the porter and the mysterious woman once they reach that door.</u> It might very well be that the story does have an interesting ending, but we are analyzing the excerpt only. And the excerpt does not have an ending whatsoever.

Read the excerpt from The Dark Game: True Spy Stories from Invisible Ink to CIA Moles. There are theories as to why the Soviets
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer :

D. The sentence which best states the controlling idea of this passage is "The wire taps were never a secret, but they helped the United States gain military intelligence. "

The following excerpts from the passage reaffirm this controlling idea :

1. "On balance, however, some valuable information was gathered from the tapped conversations. The U.S. learned, for example, a great deal about the Soviet and Eastern European order of battle, or its military organization. Others feel that the intelligence was valuable to check against similar information obtained from other sources."

2."The evidence suggests that the CIA gained two invaluable and untainted kinds of knowledge from the taps. The agency learned a basic blueprint of the Soviet and East German security systems, and it never picked up a glimmer of warning that Moscow intended to go to war.”
