Select the correct text in the passage.
Which two events in the text work together to build tension in the passage?

(1) Presently, I heard a noise again, and woke up quietly, without starting, but just opened my eyes and peered about as well as the dim light of the little oil-lamp would allow me.

(2) To my great surprise, I could make out somehow that Lemarchant was meddling with the bottles in the medicine-chest. . . .

(3) At four I woke, as I always did, and proceeded to take one of my powders. Curiously enough, before I tasted it, the grain appeared to me to be rather coarser and more granular than the quinine1 I had originally put there. I took a pinch between my finger and thumb, and placed it on my tongue by way of testing it. Instead of being bitter, the powder, I found, was insipid and almost tasteless . . . .

HELLPPP

Answer:

i think it is passage 2 sorry if im wrong

Explanation:

1) Presently, I heard a noise again, and woke up quietly, without starting, but just opened my eyes and peered about as well as the dim light of the little oil-lamp would allow me.

What is noise?

The term "noise" means a sound, especially one that is sudden, loud or disturbing.

What is peered?

The term "peered" means to look intently with or as if with difficulty.

What is dim?

The term "dim" means very less amount of light or brightness in which one cannot clearly see or indistinct vision.

It is so because it creates a suspenseful and bit creepy environment, as the noise at night and in low/dim light makes a scene more mysterious.
