Questions 1-11 are based on the following passage. Planting the Delta Blues
As the Mississippi dusk settled on Dockery Farms on Saturday 1 evenings' in the early 1900s,
hundreds would cross a one-lane bridge to hear the blues. There, bluesmen played and sang in a
repurposed home they called the Frolicking House. Once a week, the furniture was placed
outdoors to make room for the burgeoning crowd, and wall-sized mirrors reflected coal oil
lanterns, setting the house aglow and 2 irradiating the way for stragglers. For anyone who could
pay a twenty-five-cent fee, there was space inside next to the musicians, who sometimes played
until dawn.

Announcer two: ladies and gentlemen, following on the news given in our bulletin a moment ago, the government meteorological bureau has requested the large observatories of the country to keep an astronomical watch on any further disturbances occurring on the planet mars. due to the unusual nature of this occurrence, we have arranged an interview with noted astronomer professor pierson, who will give us his views on the event. in a few moments we will take you to the princeton observatory at princeton, new jersey. we return you until then to the music of ramón raquello and his orchestra. the passage is from the transcript of the radio adaptation of the war of the worlds by h. g. wells. instead of including expert interviews, h. g. wells uses a narrator to tell about an alien invasion that occurred a few years earlier. by including expert interviews, how does the radio broadcast change the story most effectively? o. a. it puts the story in the past tense, increasing its personal tone. o o b. it makes the broadcast sound more like a fictional story. o o c. it makes the broadcast sound like a news report. o d. it makes the story sound less believable by changing who presents the story's details.
