Answer 1

The correct answer is D.

Answer 2

Answer:

I would expect to read this passage in the resolution. The correct answer is D.

Explanation:

First of all, let's remember which are the stages that we go through when we read. There are five stages, and those are exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution. In the resolution stage, we are told the ending of the story. After the climax, that is the stage with more tension, loose ends start to tied up in the falling action stage, and we are given closure to the whole story. In this case, Tanya has already talked with her friends about what bothered her and even thinks that is going to be good for their relationship, she feels hopeful, she already passed the moment of tension that was to actually talk to them, and now she is giving the subject a closure. This is exactly what happens in the resolution stage, that is why I chose this D.
