    The author balances the suspense in scene 4 with the sadness in scene 5, using foreshadowing.

    Explanation:

    Foreshadowing is a literary technique where the author advances a situation that will happen later in the narrative. This can be seen in scene 4 where Anne has a dream that her family will be captured by the Nazis. The dream terrifies her and makes her screams wake up everyone who is asleep, the screams provide suspense and an omen about what may happen in the future.

    In scene 5, Anne and all the Jews in the secret annex are celebrating hanuka, that's when they hear a noise downstairs and are apprehensive, because they believe the Nazis have found them. This apprehension is related to Anne's dream.

    However, over time they discover that he was not a thief, but all the fear they felt changes their desire to celebrate the hanuka and makes everyone saddened by the situation they are living in.
