Read the excerpt from Immigrant Kids, by Russell Freedman. The second doctor watched for contagious and infectious diseases. He looked especially for infections of the scalp and at the eyelids for symptoms of trachoma, a blinding disease. Since trachoma caused more than half of all medical detentions, this doctor was greatly feared. He stood directly in the immigrant’s path. With a swift movement, he would grab the immigrant’s eyelid, pull it up, and peer beneath it. If all was well, the immigrant was passed on.

How does the author's use of concrete details such as "stood directly in the path," "swift movement," and "grabbed" affect the reader’s impression of the doctor?

A. These details describe how the doctor felt about doing trachoma inspections.
B. These details provide information about medical examinations from the doctor’s perspective.
C. These details describe the doctor’s actions as direct and focused.
D. These details provide a list of medical examinations.

Read the excerpt from "the most dangerous game." again rainsford lifted the heavy knocker, and let it fall. the door opened then, opened as suddenly as if it were on a spring, and rainsford stood blinking in the river of glaring gold light that poured out. the first thing rainsford's eyes discerned was the largest man rainsford had ever seen—a gigantic creature, solidly made and black bearded to the waist. in his hand the man held a long-barreled revolver, and he was pointing it straight at rainsford's heart. the details of this excerpt show that rainsford sees ivan as a(n) individual.
