Read the paragraph.

if you get lost while hiking in the wilderness, don’t panic. most importantly, do not walk around aimlessly. stay on the trail. stop where you are and observe your surroundings. are there any landmarks that look familiar, such as large rocks, a creek, or river? check these against your map, and check your compass. listen for any familiar sounds—cars on a road, perhaps, or the voices of others who might you. if you don’t hear anything, do not go any farther. stay put, especially if you are injured or near exhaustion. if you need to spend the night in the woods, stay warm and keep yourself hydrated. set up camp in the open, so rescuers will be able to see you. use a signaling device, such as a mirror, a brightly colored pack, or make patterns in the snow. if you build a fire, be aware of area fire restrictions. many forest fires have been started by lost hikers or hunters.

Read the quotation from "an occurrence at owl creek bridge." and now he became conscious of a new disturbance. striking through the thought of his dear ones was a sound which he could neither ignore nor understand, a sharp, distinct, metallic percussion like the stroke of a blacksmith’s hammer upon the anvil; it had the same ringing quality. he wondered what it was, and whether immeasurably distant or near by—it seemed both. its recurrence was regular, but as slow as the tolling of a death knell. he awaited each stroke with impatience and—he knew not why—apprehension. the intervals of silence grew progressively longer, the delays became maddening. with their greater infrequency the sounds increased in strength and sharpness. they hurt his ear like the thrust of a knife; he feared he would shriek. what he heard was the ticking of his watch. which best describes the effect of the narration in the excerpt? it suggests that the man being executed feels tranquil and at peace. it suggests that the narrator is sympathetic to the man being executed. it suggests that the plot will become less tense as the story continues. it suggests that the story will become more intense and mysterious.
