I believe the answer is wildly.

Explanation:

Because all of the other words are objects or verbs that don't give any true meaning to the passage, it would not make sense for them to be the answer. Wildly helps to show that the person shaking the flashlight is fearful which can help to set the tone of the passage.

the correct answer option for this is: false.

explanation:

we are given the following statement 'hawthorne thought of himself as a novelist' which is false.

the truth is that nathaniel hawthorne thought of himself as a romancer, rather than a novelist.

though it is ironic of him of him to consider himself a romancer rather than a novelist despite of the innocent women killings in the salem witch trials which occurred in colonial massachusetts between 1692 and 1693 .
