Question

on page 5 what is the purpose of counting down the numbers of meters between the narrator and her father

Answer 1

The objective is to create and increase the tension of the story, through the stimulation of anxiety.

Why does it happen?

• Because a countdown reinforces the concept that something is ending.
• Because the countdown stimulates the reader's anxiety about something that is about to happen.
• Because the countdown reinforces the occurrence of something good or bad.

By stimulating the reader's anxiety, the story establishes a tension that is increased as the countdown approaches its end, as it shows that something great is about to happen, but it can still be stopped. This grandiose event can be positive or negative, but its increasingly evident possibility of occurrence creates a strong tension that increases as the count progresses.
