Which three lines in the passage best represent the falling action? Mihkal's First Roundup (excerpt) Mihkal's eyes were beginning to grow heavy when he heard a low, rumbling sound. It seemed to be coming from all directions. Instantly Mihkal was outside. He knew that sound only too well. He had heard it before. It was an avalanche! A quick glance at the top of a nearby peak showed the boy that the packed snow was heading in the direction of the bedded-down reindeer. "Father! Uncle Ailu!" Mihkal shouted. He ran as fast as he could toward the herd. "Hei! Hei!" he called to the dogs, waving his arms frantically. Mihkal felt as though his heart were going to explode. Pieces of ice and pebbles struck him on the head, but he kept running. The frightened reindeer were stampeding ahead of the dogs and the boy. The roaring of the crashing mountainside echoed in Mihkal’s ears. At last, completely exhausted, he fell facedown on the ground. His whole body felt numb. Bright spots swam before his tightly closed eyes. Several moments later he heard voices and felt himself being lifted high into the air. He shook the snow from his hair and opened his eyes. He was in Uncle Ailu's arms. Farther and the other herders were gathered close by. "Good boy," said Father. "Your quick thinking saved the herd and the dogs." Uncle Ailu's arms tightened around Mihkal. "You may be young and small," he said, grinning, "but you can outrun and outyell any boy in Lapland." He gave the boy an extra-hard hug. "I'd say you'll make a fine reindeer herder."
