MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

3.Read the following passage about Twain’s first public speaking appearance. Which answer choice most clearly states how the presentation of events in this passage compares to Twain’s account?
At first, Twain was the most nervous human I'd ever seen. I thought he might be about to lose his lunch - and that made me nervous myself. I'm already a jittery guy. But once he got going, it was like he was born to it. And then I relaxed, too! He was the funniest person I've ever heard.
The presentation in the two passages is the same.
In the first passage, readers learn about Twain’s feelings. In the second passage, readers find out how an audience member perceived him.
In the first passage, Twain does not say much about his seasickness. In the second passage, readers learn more about that.
