Answer:
C). Readers should now predict that Steve will no longer be seen as the leader.
Step-by-step explanation:
In part one of the teleplay, the readers would amend their prediction of Steve being the leader of the town throughout the blackout when Don interrogates Steve regarding the radio as they would not predict that he would not continue the leadership. They predict him to no longer be in charge as the neighbors now get to know that he is an alien and their faith in him is shattered completely. Thus, option C is the correct answer.
