Read the passage. From “The Rockpile” When he looked up again he did not know how much time had passed, but now there was a gang fight on the rockpile. Dozens of boys fought each other in the harsh sun: clambering up the rocks and battling hand to hand, scuffed shoes sliding on the slippery rock; filling the bright air with curses and jubilant cries. They filled the air, too, with flying weapons: stones, sticks, tin cans, garbage, whatever could be picked up and thrown. . . . [John began to worry about Roy’s absence. He realized his brother was also playing roughly with the others, although it was too bright to pinpoint which figure was Roy. When he finally saw Roy, Roy was standing at the top of the rockpile. Just then a tin can hit Roy directly on the head. He fell down on the rockpile, face first.] Then for a moment there was no movement at all, no sound, the sun, arrested, lay on the street and the sidewalk and the arrested boys. Then someone screamed or shouted; boys began to run away, down the street, toward the bridge. The figure on the ground, having caught its breath and felt its own blood, began to shout. John cried, “Mama! Mama!” and ran inside.

How does the setting change after Roy’s accident?

The street got crowded.

The street got brighter.

The street got quiet.
