Read this excerpt from "eavesdropping" by eudora welty and answer the question. what they talked about, i have no idea … . it was no doubt whatever a young married couple spending their first time privately in each other’s company in the long, probably harried day would talk about. it was the murmur of their voices, the back-and-forth, the unnoticed stretching away of time between my bedtime and theirs, that made me bask there at my distance. what i felt was not that i was excluded from them but that i was included, in – and because of – what i could hear in their voices and what i could see of their faces in the cone of yellow light under the brown-scorched shade. which of the following best describes welty’s purpose for this narrative in the excerpt? to interpret her life with commentary to entertain with stories to educate about marriage to give a sense of place

What is the effect of narrator's word choice on the tone of this passage? the words "my heart shrank within itself" create a fearful tone. the words "wounded his fellow" develop a remorseful tone. the words "struck harsh upon my ears" suggest an irritated tone. the words "better-omened" set a hopeful tone. excerpt from "the cabuliwallah" by rabindranath tagore i was sitting in my study, looking through the accounts, when some one entered, saluting respectfully, and stood before me. it was rahmun the cabuliwallah. at first i did not recognise him. he had no bag, nor the long hair, nor the same vigour that he used to have. but he smiled, and i knew him again. "when did you come, rahmun? " i asked him. "last evening," he said, "i was released from jail." the words struck harsh upon my ears. i had never before talked with one who had wounded his fellow, and my heart shrank within itself when i realised this; for i felt that the day would have been better-omened had he not turned up.
