Answer:
The option which the opening paragraph does the least to accomplish is:
B. immediately pull the reader into the action
Explanation:
Let's work this one out through elimination:
A. The opening paragraph DOES establish a relationship between the narrator and a character. We are immediately told they are uncle and nephew.
B. This seems to be the right choice for us. There is not a lot of action going on. We do not know what the uncle is listening for, what to expect, what is going on. This dragging creates some suspense as we wait for the action to start.
C. The opening paragraph DOES provide a sense of setting. As soon as we are told about the "cornfield" and the "breeze", we can imagine the characters are on a farm, out in the open.
There are shapes which are cut into sections and would be made into a larger shape if they were fitted together. One good example of this would be a half circle and another half circle; because if they were joined together, they would be a full circle.
With this in mind, there are different forms through which smaller shapes can be fitted together to become a larger shape and they could be a half trapezium, etc.
Please note that your question is incomplete so I gave you a general overview so that you could have a better understanding of the concept.
