Question

Which excerpt from "Initiation” correctly matches with the implied resolution of the story?

There really was no doubt now that she would get in; This implies that Millicent will accept the invitation.
This is it, all right. The worst part, the hardest part, the part of initiation that I figured out myself; This implies that Millicent decides not to join the sorority.
“Well, what do they do as a club?" Millicent wanted to know; This implies that Millicent will challenge the club’s activities.
Swooping carefree over the moors, they would go singing; This implies that the sorority girls will form a choir.

Answer 1

The second excerpt.

Explanation: “This is it, all right. The worst part, the hardest part, the part of initiation that I figured out myself;” signals Millicent’s recognition of what initiation demands (giving up herself), and this realization leads her to refuse the sorority — so the implication that she decides not to join matches the story’s resolution. The other pairings are inconsistent with the ending.
