The following text is adapted from Ernest Hemingway’s 1926 novel The Sun Also Rises. The narrator is on a fishing trip at a waterfall. I did not feel the first trout strike. When I started to pull up I felt that I had one and brought him, fighting and bending the rod almost double, out of the boiling water at the foot of the falls, and swung him up and onto the dam. He was a good trout, and I banged his head against the timber so that he quivered out straight, and then slipped him into my bag. While I had him on, several trout had jumped at the falls. As soon as I baited up and dropped in again I hooked another and brought him in the same way. In a little while I had six. They were all about the same size. I laid them out, side by side, all their heads pointing the same way, and looked at them. They were beautifully colored and firm and hard from the cold water.Which choice best describes the function of the underlined sentence in the text as a whole? It offers an ironic depiction of the narrator’s lack of fishing skill.eliminateIt produces an impression of the passage of time.eliminateIt provides context for why the narrator is fishing.eliminateIt clarifies the narrator’s expectations.
