50 POINTS!!!!!

Read the following quote from The Time Machine. What is the most foreboding part about the imagery? "Then my eye travelled along to the figure of the White Sphinx upon the pedestal of bronze, growing distinct as the light of the rising moon grew brighter. I could see the silver birch against it. There was the tangle of rhododendron bushes, black in the pale light, and there was the little lawn. I looked at the lawn again. "

A. The Time Traveller’s continual analysis of what he’s seeing
B. The powerful looking statue
C. The eerie word choice
D. The Time Traveller’s confidence

Answer 1

the answer is c because of the time travellers confidence

Answer 2

The most foreboding part about the imagery in the quote is the eerie word choice. The phrase "black in the pale light" creates a sense of darkness and foreboding. The word "tangle" also suggests danger and chaos. Additionally, the fact that the Time Traveller looks at the lawn again suggests that something is wrong with it.

So the answer is (C).
