In their consequences, these events have terrified—have tortured—have destroyed me."a) slow b)fast c)fast and slow d)average

Answers

The correct answer is A. Slow

Explanation:

The pace refers to the rhythm of a text or how fast or slow the text flows or the events in a narrative are told, this is usually linked to how many words the writer uses to explain one action and how fast the reader is informed of these actions, which is determined by the use of phrases and punctuation, as punctuation  marks introduce pauses which implies the more punctuation marks a text includes the slower the narrative is and therefore the slower the pace is. Considering this, this passage has a slow pace as multiple punctuation marks are included such as dashes, periods and commas, which creates multiple pauses for the reader and therefore the actions are explained ed slowly, also multiple phrases are used to explain few actions which support the idea of a slow pace in this passage.

Answer:
