Read the passage.

britain's policy of internment came into force in may 1940. this affected older child refugees who had reached the age of sixteen before 1940. these children found work in agriculture and domestic service or joined the pioneer corps and other auxiliary services. only a small number were interned.

each year presented the r. c.m. with new challenges which meant changes in policies and changes within the organisation. questions of finance, welfare and religious upbringing were issues which aroused criticism and conflict. although its main aim was to re-unite the refugee children with their parents, as the war continued and news of the persecution and mass murder of the jews reached the united kingdom, it became apparent this was becoming increasingly unlikely. re-emigration became uncertain.

Read the quotation from "an occurrence at owl creek bridge." and now he became conscious of a new disturbance. striking through the thought of his dear ones was a sound which he could neither ignore nor understand, a sharp, distinct, metallic percussion like the stroke of a blacksmith’s hammer upon the anvil; it had the same ringing quality. he wondered what it was, and whether immeasurably distant or near by—it seemed both. its recurrence was regular, but as slow as the tolling of a death knell. he awaited each stroke with impatience and—he knew not why—apprehension. the intervals of silence grew progressively longer, the delays became maddening. with their greater infrequency the sounds increased in strength and sharpness. they hurt his ear like the thrust of a knife; he feared he would shriek. what he heard was the ticking of his watch. which best describes the effect of the narration in the excerpt? it suggests that the man being executed feels tranquil and at peace. it suggests that the narrator is sympathetic to the man being executed. it suggests that the plot will become less tense as the story continues. it suggests that the story will become more intense and mysterious.
