2. PART B: Which detail from the text best supports the answer to Part A?
O A "machine guns and rifles broke the silence of the night,
spasmodically, like dogs barking on lone farms. Republicans and
Free Staters were waging civil war." ( Paragraph 1)
OB "The armored car had retired speedily over the bridge, with the
machine gunner's head hanging lifeless over the turret. The
woman's corpse lay still in the gutter." ( Paragraph 15)
C "His ruse had succeeded. The other sniper, seeing the cap and rifle
fall, thought that he had killed his man. He was now standing
before a row of chimney pots, looking across, with his head clearly
silhouetted against the western sky." ( Paragraph 18)
OD "he felt a sudden curiosity as to the identity of the enemy sniper
whom he had killed... He wondered did he know him. Perhaps he
had been in his own company before the split in the army." (
Paragraph 25)
