Select the correct answer. How does the appearance of the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come contribute to the text in this excerpt from Charles Dickens's A Christmas Carol?

The Phantom slowly, gravely, silently, approached. When it came near him, Scrooge bent down upon his knee; for in the very air through which this Spirit moved it seemed to scatter gloom and mystery.

It was shrouded in a deep black garment, which concealed its head, its face, its form, and left nothing of it visible save one outstretched hand. But for this it would have been difficult to detach its figure from the night, and separate it from the darkness by which it was surrounded.

He felt that it was tall and stately when it came beside him, and that its mysterious presence filled him with a solemn dread. He knew no more, for the Spirit neither spoke nor moved.

A.
The ghost's dramatic appearance shows Scrooge how severely materialistic he has become over the years.
B.
The ghost's unassuming appearance reminds Scrooge that he has overrated his own self-importance.
C.
The ghost's mysterious appearance heightens the horror that Scrooge feels about the results of his life choices.
D.
The ghost's dark appearance emphasizes the sense that Scrooge is doomed to hopelessness and desolation.
E.
The ghost's powerful appearance reminds Scrooge that he holds the power within himself to change.

Read the excerpt from "the most dangerous game." again rainsford lifted the heavy knocker, and let it fall. the door opened then, opened as suddenly as if it were on a spring, and rainsford stood blinking in the river of glaring gold light that poured out. the first thing rainsford's eyes discerned was the largest man rainsford had ever seen—a gigantic creature, solidly made and black bearded to the waist. in his hand the man held a long-barreled revolver, and he was pointing it straight at rainsford's heart. the details of this excerpt show that rainsford sees ivan as a(n) individual.
