select the correct text in the passage. which sentence best communicates the authors message that the berlin wall made citizens feel afraid? inges wall (excerpt) one morning, when klaus schubert was 11 years old, he passed cement trucks and workers unloading steel rods and barbed wire as he walked to school. he returned hours later to find his view of the buildings, greenery, and other things he had seen earlier swallowed up by the sour - smelling cement and the snarling barbed wire. and worse, the people he had known were gone—friends and family alike. the government had said the wall was for the protection of the people on klauss side. but what had there been to fear? that unanswered question became both an oppressive shroud over klauss childhood and a sinister playmate, as he often let his mind wander, imagining horrors or enemies that must have been so great that only such a great, grey, stone wall could keep them out. then, klaus grew into manhood, and he began to view the wall through another lens. it became an oppressor that the people in the east dared not question or appear to challenge in any way. the wall was just a few feet from the home inge shared with her parents. aside from her school and other crumbling buildings in their neighborhood, their world was a few rooms in a dull, gray concrete flat with no yard and no trees. the wall was part of the view from the only windows they had, and inge was drawn to the sounds she often heard from the other side—laughter, shouting, music, and the noise of busy traffic.
