Which choice provides the best objective summary of the passage? A. There are very few fishermen who have encountered the White Whale. It requires sailing whale-cruisers long distances to reach the area where the whale lives. Due to being so far from civilization, the whale’s reputation has not spread. B. The White Whale has been haunting the region for many years. But most who encounter it do not survive. Therefore, most fisherman do not know how dangerous it is. C. The White Whale has been around for a while. But due to the long, solitary voyages of fishermen and little contact among them, the whale’s behavior has not been widely known, let alone witnessed. D. There are many large whale-cruisers but only a few that have ventured to distant, solitary latitudes. So, only a few have ever encountered the White Whale; but as they rarely make it back, the whale’s reputation seems unrealistic and false.

Read the excerpt from the war of the worlds, in which the crowd begins to disperse just before the first martian exits the cylinder.when i returned to the common the sun was setting. scattered groups were hurrying from the direction of woking, and one or two persons were returning. the crowd about the pit had increased, and stood out black against the lemon yellow of the sky—a couple of hundred people, perhaps. there were raised voices, and some sort of struggle appeared to be going on about the pit. strange imaginings passed through my mind. as i drew nearer i heard stent's voice: "keep back! keep back! "a boy came running towards me."it's a-movin'," he said to me as he passed; 'a-screwin' and a-screwin' out. i don't like it. i'm a-goin' 'ome, i am."what options accurately depict the impact of the boy's words on pacing within the excerpt? (select all that apply.)the war of the worldsthe setting is in england, so the boy's words provide the reader with the dialect of the area. even though that slows down the plot, the boy's words contain important information.the plot's forward movement is slow at the beginning of the excerpt because there is little action. the boy's words increase the tension and counteract that lag.the narrator is not close enough to see clearly into the pit, so the boy's words provide the narrator with the information he needs, which moves the plot forward.the boy's words serve to speed up the pacing of the plot because, as he is talking to the narrator, he is running past him to get away.the narrator is not close enough to see clearly into the pit, so the boy's words provide the narrator with the information he needs, which moves the plot forward.wrong? the boy's words serve to speed up the pacing of the plot because, as he is talking to the narrator, he is running past him to get away.
