Select the correct text in the passage. In which three parts of this excerpt from "Dover Beach" by Matthew Arnold does the speaker describe the sorrow and confusion that he
wants to escape?

[The Sea of Faith
Was once, too, at the full], and round earth's shore
Lay like the folds of a bright girdle furl'd.
[But now I only hear
Its melancholy, long, withdrawing roar],
Retreating, to the breath
of the night-wind, down the vast edges drear
And naked shingles of the world.
[Ah, love, let us be true
To one another!] for [the world, which seems
To lie before us like a land of dreams]
So various, so beautiful, so new,
[Hath really neither joy, nor love, nor light],
Nor certitude, nor peace, nor help for pain;
[And we are here as on a darkling plain]
Swept with confused alarms of struggle and flight,
Where ignorant armies clash by night.

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.
