Answer:

E. reinforce one of the motifs of the passage

Step-by-step explanation:

The lines "He did not know that he was dead, then" (paragraph1) and "And then he died. He did not know he was dead"

(paragraph 4) serve to do all the following EXCEPT reinforce one of the motifs of the passage.

The lines shows a connection between the two paragraphs, makes useful characterization and shows the speaker's desire for death. However, it does not reinforce one of the motifs of the passage.

When making a narration, a motif repetition can be used to show mood or produce the theme of the narration and this can be done primarily through imagery, or language.
