I would choose the last choice, D. Adverbial.
Adverbial phrases include two or more words that serve as adverbs. So "in an hour or two" can be classified as an adverb phrase.
Hello. You have not provided either the text or answer options for this question. This makes it impossible for me to answer it. However, I will try to help you as best I can.
To answer this question, you will have to read the entire text, so you will be able to identify not only the climax of the story but also the theme. Climax refers to the moment when the biggest plot challenge will be faced. In climax, characters face the biggest enemy or the biggest difficulty they have. You must identify this moment by the paragraph that indicates that this "fight" will begin.
The text's theme, on the other hand, refers to the message and teaching that the author wishes to convey through the story. You will be able to discover this theme, when you find out what subject the author is addressing in the story. Once this theme is discovered, you'll be able to associate it with the characters' speech and behavior.
Answer: D. Both passages have a theme of the hardships of war.
Explanation: In both passages it talks about war.
In the first one, when it says "' I've just come from the Richmond camp with news about the revolutionaries...'" This is a clear statement about the revolitionary war, and further on it goes to say, "'Lieutenant Hamlin's horse came up lame, and he was unable to deliver himself.'" This is talking about something bad that happened durring the war.
In the second passage, it says, "Her village needed every able-bodied person to help defend against the Manchu." This person is obvisouly in a position of defense and how this girl is going to protect her village as her brother. Usually when protecting something, it's in a fight. Also, she said she "flinched" when she cut her first chunk of hair off, meaning it was causing her distress and wasn't easy.
