Read the excerpt from “the railroad earth.” ——ah me how but it was hell and now i had the whole thing to myself, and make my raisin toast by sitting it on a little wire i'd especially bent to place over the hot plate within these lines, where is the most appropriate place for a pause? read the excerpt from “the railroad earth.” after “ah” after “myself” after “toast” after “bent”

B). After "myself".

Explanation:

As per the question, the most appropriate place for a pause would be 'after myself' as the use of comma indicates the pause. The coordinating conjunction 'and' symbolizes the addition of a new sentence(or idea) to the prior clause that further reflects a slight halt or pause before adding another clause. Thus, 'after 'myself'' would be the exact place for a pause as it signifies a halt without breaking the flow or altering the meaning(because of modification of the structure) of the sentence due to the use of coma that primarily reflects a pause. Thus, option B is the correct answer.
