Explanation:

1.We can see description like ''Torwood pine forest and the grapes'' often in literature and it is often used to create sense of fear or confusion in the readers(not characters)so they could assume that some mysterious events are going to happen. In forests we don't know what we can find and what kind of animals can appear that is why often readers are having dark thoughts which is giving the story foreboding and dark mood. Also, there are a lot of dark colors in the forests and the grapes.

2. This excerpt is from the novel ''The Man Who Knew Too Much'' and after that we can see that ''There was a silence, and then March started with irrational.'' Because of the silence after those words, the readers will doubt on Fisher's honesty and innocence and also because it was odd for people that he is perfectly right in something.
