Questions 25-27 apply to the following passage.
By seven o’clock the orchestra has arrived—no thin five piece affair but a whole pit full of oboes and trombones and saxophones and
viols and cornets and piccolos and low and high drums. The last swimmers have come in from the beach now and are dressing upstairs; the
cars from New York are parked five deep in the drive, and already the halls and salons and verandas are gaudy with primary colors and hair
shorn in strange new ways and shawls beyond the dreams of Castile. The bar is in full swing and floating rounds of cocktails permeate the
garden outside until the air is alive with chatter and laughter and casual innuendo and introductions forgotten on the spot and enthusiastic
meetings between women who never knew each other’s names.
The lights grow brighter as the earth lurches away from the sun and now the orchestra is playing yellow cocktail music and the opera
of voices pitches a key higher. Laughter is easier, minute by minute, spilled with prodigality, tipped out at a cheerful word. The groups
change more swiftly, swell with new arrivals, dissolve and form in the same breath—already there are wanderers, confident girls who weave
here and there among the stouter and more stable, become for a sharp, joyous moment the center of a group and then excited with triumph
glide on through the sea-change of faces and voices and color under the constantly changing light.
