Question 5 • English III Remediation 1st Grading Period
“A small picture presented the interior of an immensely long and rectangular vault or tunnel, with low walls, smooth, white, and without interruption of device. Certain accessory points of the design served well to convey the idea that this excavation lay at an exceeding depth below the surface of the earth.”
Answer
A
what the narrator knows from the past
B
what the narrator experiences in the story
C
an inference made by the narrator
Explanation
The narrator describes what the picture shows, then interprets its details as suggesting that the tunnel lies far beneath the earth’s surface. That conclusion is an inference drawn from the picture, so the answer is “an inference made by the narrator.”
