 C. to devolpe theme

Explanation:

A To explore a  situation through the differing perspectives of two authors.

Explanation:

First of all, we can observe that the initial phrase is in past active objective voice and written in the "third person" point of view. Which means someone narrated the moment, someone who was not him, the tale's narrator. Second, the initial sentence is followed by an active voice phrase, but the difference between the two phrases is that the second one is in present and written in the "first-person" point of view. This means it represented the thoughts of someone, in this cases Sam's Thoughts.

Third, all the paragraph's structure is developed in this sequence: narrators sentence to contextualize, followed by Sam's (main role character) thoughts to dive deep in the moment of the event and his mind.

D: To emphasize a specific time frame.

Explanation:

The poem Barbara Frietchie by John Greenleaf Whittier talks about the bravery and defiance of the old lady Barbara Frietchie amidst the march of the Confederate armies under General Jackson. Her love and respect for her country's flag influenced and touched the general's heart who promised to kill anyone who attacks the old woman.

The repetition of the rhyming couplet "all day long" in the two lines of the poem is to lay emphasis on the specific time frame that the flag remained fluttering in the wind. The flag's time in the wind and the marching of the armies corresponds to each other.  

Thus, the correct answer is option D.

To develop the tone of the story and background of the character.
