Read the paragraph from lucy’s narrative.
i could see that my neighbor was struggling with the lone bag of groceries cradled in her arms, but i wasn’t sure what i should do. grandma june—what all the neighborhood kids had called her for as long as i could remember—had always been the one to care for us, to us build stronger forts, to grow better flowers, and to learn from our mistakes. to ask if she needed with something as simple as carrying in one bag of groceries would be like shouting to the world that she was aging, that she was no longer as strong as she once had been. hesitantly, i walked to the wooden gate that divided our front lawn from hers and stood there as the package she was carrying threatened to spill from her arms.
lucy decides that this may not be the most effective way to tell her story. if she wants to create more suspense in the plot, what would be the best possible change she could make?
she could remove the background information about her past with grandma june, allowing suspense to build as the reader wonders who grandma june is.
she could include more reasons she is hesitant to assist grandma june, allowing suspense to build as the reader begins to believe she will not .
she could start with the last sentence instead, allowing suspense to build as the reader wonders why she is hesitant to ask if grandma june needs .
she could begin with more stories about grandma june, allowing suspense to build as the reader wonders why she is talking about grandma june.

"the children's hour" by henry wadsworth longfellow between the dark and the daylight, when the night is beginning to lower, comes a pause in the day's occupations, that is known as the children's hour. i hear in the chamber above me the patter of little feet, the sound of a door that is opened, and voices soft and sweet. from my study i see in the lamplight, descending the broad hall stair, grave alice, and laughing allegra, and edith with golden hair. a whisper, and then a silence: yet i know by their merry eyes they are plotting and planning together to take me by surprise. a sudden rush from the stairway, a sudden raid from the hall! by three doors left unguarded they enter my castle wall! they climb up into my turret o'er the arms and back of my chair; if i try to escape, they surround me; they seem to be everywhere. they almost devour me with kisses, their arms about me entwine, till i think of the bishop of bingen in his mouse-tower on the rhine! do you think, o blue-eyed banditti, because you have scaled the wall, such an old mustache as i am is not a match for you all! i have you fast in my fortress, and will not let you depart, but put you down into the dungeon in the round-tower of my heart. and there will i keep you forever, yes, forever and a day, till the walls shall crumble to ruin, and moulder in dust away! which literary device does longfellow use most frequently in the poem? a. simile b. metaphor c. repetition d. personification
