excerpt from Frankenstein
by Mary Shelly
These reflections have dispelled the agitation with which I began my letter, and I feel my heart glow with an enthusiasm which elevates me to
heaven, for nothing contributes so much to tranquilize the mind as a steady purpose-a point on which the soul may fix its intellectual eye. This
expedition has been the favorite dream of my early years. I have read with ardor the accounts of the various voyages which have been made in
the prospect of arriving at the North Pacific Ocean through the seas which surround the pole. You may remember that a history of all the
voyages made for purposes of discovery composed the whole of our good Uncle Thomas' library. My education was neglected, yet I was
passionately fond of reading. These volumes were my study day and night, and my familiarity with them increased that regret which I had felt,
as a child, on learning that my father's dying injunction had forbidden my uncle to allow me to embark in a seafaring life.

Announcer two: ladies and gentlemen, following on the news given in our bulletin a moment ago, the government meteorological bureau has requested the large observatories of the country to keep an astronomical watch on any further disturbances occurring on the planet mars. due to the unusual nature of this occurrence, we have arranged an interview with noted astronomer professor pierson, who will give us his views on the event. in a few moments we will take you to the princeton observatory at princeton, new jersey. we return you until then to the music of ramón raquello and his orchestra. the passage is from the transcript of the radio adaptation of the war of the worlds by h. g. wells. instead of including expert interviews, h. g. wells uses a narrator to tell about an alien invasion that occurred a few years earlier. by including expert interviews, how does the radio broadcast change the story most effectively? o. a. it puts the story in the past tense, increasing its personal tone. o o b. it makes the broadcast sound more like a fictional story. o o c. it makes the broadcast sound like a news report. o d. it makes the story sound less believable by changing who presents the story's details.
