Amid the many horrors of the vietnam war, i found one of the worst to be the waiting — those quiet times of inactivity when anticipation of the next attack weighed on me like a pile of bricks. i might be lying in the mud along a creek bed somewhere, completely oblivious to the cold, the wet earth, or the smell of gunpowder still fresh in my nostrils. it was those times of waiting that showed me i had nothing else in my mind — no past, no future, no ideas. just a raw awareness of the moment. which sentence best uses figurative language to match the paragraph's tone? a. for years after that, i would remember the terror and suspense of those long minutes spent waiting. b. in the quiet of the jungle, the rippling sounds of the creek carried me back to happier days on my parents' farm. c. the jungle had reached into my mind, and its thick vines choked out everything else that had been there. d. i could hear my own pulse drumming in my ears, but my only thought was to remain still and quiet.

Read the excerpt from the land. in the late afternoon i did the same, but all the time i was on the stallion, i was aware that mitchell was watching me. he had appeared on the edge of the woods and had just stood there watching ghost wind and me as we went round and round the meadow. finally, on one of our turns past him, he said: "s'pose you thinkin' you a real somebody 'cause you can ride that stallion." i looked down at mitchell and stopped, knowing that despite our understanding, he was itching for a fight with me. now, i don't know what possessed me in that moment to say the next thing i did. maybe i was feeling guilty that because i was my daddy's son, i could ride ghost wind. maybe it was that, but it wasn't out of fear i said what i said. i no longer was afraid of mitchell. "you want to ride him? " i asked. mitchell took a step backward. it was obvious he hadn't expected me to say that. "you know i can't ride him," he said. "your white daddy'd kill me." "you want to ride him? " i asked again. mitchell looked at the stallion, then at me. "so, what if i do? " what intrinsic motivation does the author most likely intend the reader to infer from the passage? paul is motivated by his need to have mitchell praise his riding skills. mitchell is motivated by his need to have paul praise his riding skills. paul is motivated by jealousy and wishes he had free time like mitchell. mitchell is motivated by jealousy and wishes he could ride the horse.
