From the following passage, which quote BEST shows the mood of the story?

• “Hey Vinny, Watch how a man does it! Look!”

• "The cold mountain water tasted tangy. Was that because the boy's body was down there decomposing?"

• “The cool breeze that swept the Hawaiian hillside pastures above died early in the descent.”

• "The Boy didn't die Vinny. The Goddess took him."

Answer explanation

This is the one that gives the spookiest feelings. Even the other references the death and dying but this one makes us FEEL it the most.

One quote that BEST shows Vinny is...

• "He'd never been this far up the trail before. Once he'd tried to go all the way, but couldn't. "

• “They took their time because the hand and footholds were slimy with moss.”

• "He’d never seen anything so beautiful in all his life."

• "Vinny decided he'd better believe in the legend. If he didn't, the goddess might get mad..."

Answer explanation

This is best because it is dealing with his central fear, having to go to the 50 foot ledge when he is scared of heights, and having to do what the dead boy did where he could possibly also die.
