ill hit u up if i ever need help
I think D is the best answer choice. for a work written around the time of the salem witch trials, you can better understand why extreme fear and condemnation of witchcraft might show up, and the author's purpose is a major thing to understand a work. C doesn't really make sense, because historical context is based on facts, so the context doesn't so much help you understand an author's attitude/opinion. B is true to some degree, but D is still a stronger answer as B is somewhat circular; historical context is an inherent part of a historical character? and A doesn't even make sense to me but i personally would go with D
What are the answer choices? If you have climax then thats your answer (:
Answer:
D
Explanation:
This is the only option that connects the word "safe" and something "preserved"
Part A: The author describes the dangerous situation that the characters in the story are facing.
Throughout the passage the speaker reminds the reader of the danger the characters are facing. This creates suspense. A flashback does not create suspense. The background and training adds to how dangerous the situation is since only a person that well-trained can complete the rescue but it doesn't add to the suspense: the danger does. A is also wrong for the same reason.
Part B: “I shouldn’t think of this as easy. I know what I need to do here, but I could lose one these men if just one thing goes wrong.”
This quote best shows the danger that the speaker and the characters are in. It shows that the situation is life and death. One wrong move and it's all over for someone.
