Amy was so excited about the christmas dance that she couldn't concentrate on anything else. the whole week leading up to it, she drew doodles of herself wearing her dress and a sparkling tiara instead of taking notes. the night before the dance, she noticed that she was getting a small pimple on her nose. it was just a tiny little mark, but she imagined herself with a great big pimple, looking like rudolph the reindeer in all of the photos, and grew gravely concerned. she ran out to the store and bought a tube of every kind of pimple fighting cream available and then applied large globs of each of them to her nose. she went to bed satisfied that she had done all that she could to fight the blemish. when she woke up, she ran to mirror hoping that the pimple had vanished. as she gazed upon herself in the mirror, she screamed, not because the pimple had vanished, but because a bright red rash covered her entire nose.

Announcer two: ladies and gentlemen, following on the news given in our bulletin a moment ago, the government meteorological bureau has requested the large observatories of the country to keep an astronomical watch on any further disturbances occurring on the planet mars. due to the unusual nature of this occurrence, we have arranged an interview with noted astronomer professor pierson, who will give us his views on the event. in a few moments we will take you to the princeton observatory at princeton, new jersey. we return you until then to the music of ramón raquello and his orchestra. the passage is from the transcript of the radio adaptation of the war of the worlds by h. g. wells. instead of including expert interviews, h. g. wells uses a narrator to tell about an alien invasion that occurred a few years earlier. by including expert interviews, how does the radio broadcast change the story most effectively? o.a. it puts the story in the past tense, increasing its personal tone. o o b. it makes the broadcast sound more like a fictional story. o o c. it makes the broadcast sound like a news report. o d. it makes the story sound less believable by changing who presents the story's details.
