To determine the best answer to how the playwrights transition between Scene 1 and Scene 2 of Act 1 in "The Diary of Anne Frank," we need to focus on how the play typically maintains continuity between scenes.

In plays, transitions often connect narrative elements smoothly, so it's common for a new scene to build on what just occurred.

Given these options, the most plausible answer for how the playwrights transition is:

continuing the passage from Anne’s diary that ends the first scene.

This choice suggests a seamless continuation from the character’s perspective, maintaining the diary's narrative style and allowing for a smooth flow into the next scene.
