Question

Read the excerpt from part 2 of "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge."

Answer 1

Answer:

Based on the excerpt, the most reasonable plot prediction is that (A) Farquhar may unknowingly walk into a trap.

Explanation:

“An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge” by “Ambrose Bierce” is a story set during American Civil War. The soldier had disguised himself and he was a scout. Gradually in the story we come to know that 'Farquhar' had been set up through a tricky play. So, the correct option is option A.

Farquhar is a supporter of confederate. Thinking that the soldier that came is confederate he informed about the movements of the Union soldiers, thinking Confederate could win the war with this information. But the 'Confederate soldier' was a Union soldier in disguise.
