Which sentence best contributes to the mood of hopelessness in the excerpt?
Answer:
The phrases- “A leap from the air” and “ordinarily these problems” are the key phrases here to understand how it contributes to the mood of hopelessness in the excerpt. ( read more below )
Explanation:
The phrases- “A leap from the air” and “ordinarily these problems” are the key phrases here to understand how it contributes to the mood of hopelessness in the excerpt. The former presents a situation that is not possible. There’s no hold in air, and to leap from it is implying that they were performing the impossible at the top of each wave, which presented such problems “ordinarily.” The understated way in which these are mentioned intensifies the hopelessness of the situation. And the fact that the boat had been compared to a horse that had to “leap again” over a high fence facilitates the image that this statement paints.

When should you paraphrase information instead of using a direct quote?
The correct answer is D. When the source goes into detail that you don't need
Explanation:
If you quote a source you include the exact words of the author; this means you do not modify any of the words, which is recommended in case you want to preserve the word choice of the author, the information might be altered if you summarize or paraphrase, or if the quote is memorable.
On the other hand, when you paraphrase you use your own words to state the point of the author. A valid reason to do this is "when the source goes into detail that you don't need" because by paraphrasing you can focus on key ideas from the source rather than quoting all the words of the author. Also, this is recommended if the essence of the ideas is still preserved.

"The clump of laurel in which the criminal lay was in the angle of a road which after ascending southward a steep acclivity to that point turned sharply to the west, running along the summit for perhaps one hundred yards. There it turned southward again and went zigzagging downward through the forest. At the salient of that second angle was a large flat rock, jutting out northward, overlooking the deep valley from which the road ascended. The rock capped a high cliff; a stone dropped from its outer edge would have fallen sheer downward one thousand feet to the tops of the pines. The angle where the soldier lay was on another spur of the same cliff. Had be been awake he would have commanded a view, not only of the short arm of the road and the jutting rock, but of the entire profile of the cliff below it. It might well have made him giddy to look." The description of the setting in the paragraph above, helps create A. the exposition. B. the rising action. C. the climax. D. the conflict.
