Which excerpt from “the scarlet ibis” most foreshadows that the narrator will feel regret for something he has done to doodle?
1. but sometimes (like right now), as i sit in the cool, green-draped parlor, the grindstone begins to turn, and time with all its changes is ground away—and i remember doodle.
2. doodle was my brother and he was going to cling to me forever, no matter what i did, so i dragged him across the burning cotton field to share with him the only beauty i knew, old woman swamp.
3. there is within me (and with sadness i have watched it in others) a knot of cruelty borne by the stream of love, much as our blood sometimes bears the seed of our destruction, and at times i was mean to doodle.
4. once i had succeeded in teaching doodle to walk, i began to believe in my own infallibility and i prepared a terrific development program for him, unknown to mama and daddy, of course.

Announcer two: ladies and gentlemen, following on the news given in our bulletin a moment ago, the government meteorological bureau has requested the large observatories of the country to keep an astronomical watch on any further disturbances occurring on the planet mars. due to the unusual nature of this occurrence, we have arranged an interview with noted astronomer professor pierson, who will give us his views on the event. in a few moments we will take you to the princeton observatory at princeton, new jersey. we return you until then to the music of ramón raquello and his orchestra. the passage is from the transcript of the radio adaptation of the war of the worlds by h. g. wells. instead of including expert interviews, h. g. wells uses a narrator to tell about an alien invasion that occurred a few years earlier. by including expert interviews, how does the radio broadcast change the story most effectively? o.a. it puts the story in the past tense, increasing its personal tone. o o b. it makes the broadcast sound more like a fictional story. o o c. it makes the broadcast sound like a news report. o d. it makes the story sound less believable by changing who presents the story's details.
