Read the excerpt from richard wright’s black boy. hunger stole upon me so slowly that at first i was not aware of what hunger really meant. hunger had always been more or less at my elbow when i played, but now i began to wake up at night to find hunger standing at my bedside, staring at me gauntly. the hunger i had known before this had been no grim, hostile stranger; it had been a normal hunger that had made me beg constantly for bread, and when i ate a crust or two i was satisfied. but this new hunger baffled me, scared me, and made me angry and insistent. whenever i begged for food now my mother would pour me a cup of tea which would still the clamor in my stomach for a moment or two; but a little later i would feel hunger nudging my ribs, twisting my empty guts till they ached. i would grow dizzy and my vision would dim. i became less active in my play, and for the first time in my life i had to pause and think of what was happening to me. which best describes why wright includes this anecdote?

Read the excerpt from the war of the worlds, in which the first martian exits the spacecraft.a sudden chill came over me. there was a loud shriek from a woman behind. i half turned, keeping my eyes fixed upon the cylinder still, from which other tentacles were now projecting, and began pushing my way back from the edge of the pit. i saw astonishment giving place to horror on the faces of the people about me. i looked again at the cylinder, and ungovernable terror gripped me. i stood petrified and staring.what option accurately analyzes the impact of the narrator's thoughts and actions on the tone of the excerpt? the war of the worldsa disdainful tone is created as the narrator ponders the ugliness of the tentacles and turns to the shrieking woman.a melancholy tone is created by the narrator's thoughts of fear and refusal to avert his eyes.a tone of determination is created when the narrator thinks of escape and backs away from the edge of the pit.a fearful tone is created through the narrator's thoughts of horror and his glance at the cylinder.
