HEL ASAP CHARLIE (CONT'D)
(he looks past the houses)
Where is Pete Van Horn anyway? Didn't he get back yet?

There's a murmur of reaction, of questioning, and then suddenly –

SALLY
There's . . . there's a light on in the Goodman house.
The people now turn as if by direction toward the last house on the street.

–The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street,
Rod Serling

Which conclusion should readers draw from the brief reminder that Pete Van Horn is missing?

Pete has probably spotted another meteor on Floral Street.
Pete will probably play an important part in future events.
Pete’s power will probably turn on after Les Goodman’s.
Pete was probably kidnapped by Les Goodman’s family.

I would say b.

Explanation:

If the author brings up the character again they more than likely will have a important part later on in the novel.

I hope this helps!

Good luck

to me i think class room sitting education is better. i do online school and i have not learned a think haha. when i sit in the classroom i just sit there and kind of pay attention but still i get so far ahead in the class when im doing online i have nothing else better to do but play video games and i sit in school and learn and have friends and just actually learn. when i'm doing online i sit here listing to music and get on and and look up the answers i guess that is my fault for being a cheater. but to be honest i think sitting in the classroom is better.
