Answer:

What will most likely happen next in the story is:

C. Dorothy will have to find another way home.

Step-by-step explanation:

"The Discovery of Oz, the Terrible" is the 15th chapter in "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz," by L. Frank Baum. The main character of the book is Dorothy Gale, a girl who is taken from Kansas by a tornado into a magical land.

Of course, Dorothy wishes to go back home. So she goes on a journey filled with challenges and surprises. She is eventually told to go see the Wizard of Oz, so that he can help her return home.

In the excerpt we are analyzing here, the Wizard says, "I'm really a very good man, but I'm a very bad Wizard, I must admit." This implies that the Wizard will not be able to help Dorothy after all. In that case, Dorothy needs to find another way to go back to Kansas.
