Screech! Karen stomped on the gas pedal the moment the light turned green. She looked over her left shoulder and zigged past a semi-truck. She zoomed ahead and looked over her right shoulder and then zagged past a motorbike. She glanced at the clock on the console and darted into the parking lot. Whipping into a parking spot, she grabbed her suitcase and ran through the lot, up the escalator, and into the terminal. Her heavy suitcase was bumping and bouncing the whole way. Just as she entered the terminal, she heard an announcement over the loudspeaker, "Final boarding call for flight 205 to JFK..." Karen looked at her ticket and then at the line to get through the security checkpoint, which wrapped around several turnstiles and slithered like a lethargic snake. Karen sighed and then slowly walked to the customer service desk. Why does she start walking slowly at the end of the passage?a. Her friend flew to another airport. b. She missed her plane. c. She decided not to travel anywhere. d. She would rather stay home.

b. She missed her plane.

Explanation:

At the start of the passage, we read that Karen was in a hurry. She drove really fast "zoomed ahead and [] zagged past a motorbike". This is also supported by the use of the words "darted", "whipping", "ran through the lot, up the escalator and into the terminal". These words all show that she was in a hurry to be on time for her flight.

When she heard the final call for "flight 205 to JFK" and looked at the line for the security checkpoint, she knew she had no more time to get into the plane. So, she walked slowly to the customer service desk.

Thus, the correct answer is option b.

situational archetype describes the adventures of hero. the examples of situational archetypes are the quest, good vs evil, the task which represent respectively search, good forces, characters vs the evil ones and a certain job that must be done. from the given options, we cannot observe the subplot the beauty and the beast which is a correct answer for this question.

1. this would be first person. it would be like "i walked home from school today" they are the narrator of the story and is a character as well.

2. first person because they used the word "i" in the quote.

3. i'm really not sure about this one i'm really sorry i never read it so i wouldn't know how to answer it. 

4. it would be character vs. society because everyone he meets there is always a conflict of some sort because he's stuck in his daydream.

5. it would be sadness at the loss of youth because the title itself tells us it's about age so it couldn't be about regret. and the tone just sounds sad, not angry. 

i hope this !
