The problem in this sentence is the use of REDUNDANCY because the two phrases "over and over" and "repeated it" mean the same thing and pretend to give the same idea. The speaker repeated something so many times that he/she could not keep my attention.

Other examples of redundancy expressions are: "actual fact"; "blend together"; "final outcome". The repetition of words/expressions is needless, so you can do away with any of them. In speaking, redundant structures may be overlooked, but you should be careful in school or university writing. Eliminating redundant structures (which are wordy) helps your writing to be more clear and precise.

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

Mio Strand is in the Province of Suruga. Its sand is yellow and fine, strewn with rose shells at the ebb tide. Its pine trees are ancient and they lean all one way, which is the way that the wild wind wills. Before Mio rolls the deep sea, and behind Mio rises Fugi, the most sacred, the mountain of mountains. Small marvel that the Strange People should come to Mio. Of the Strange People not much is known, even at Mio, though it is sure they come there. It seems they are shy indeed, more’s the pity. They come through the blue air, or across the mysterious paths of the sea. Their footprints are never, never seen upon the wet beach, for they tread too lightly. But sometimes in their dancing they sweep their robes upon the sand and leave it ribbed and ruffled; so, often enough, it may be seen at Mio. What effect is accomplished by the author beginning the story with these descriptions?

Answer:

The author wishes to create a mystical and mysterious atmosphere for the text.

Explanation:

The author uses a descriptive language, with a wide use of adjectives that aims to show how Mio Strand and its inhabitants, as well as its atmosphere has a tone of mystery, mysticism and something beyond our reality. With this, the author creates a tone for the story, which ritualizes the reader about how the mood of the narrative will be. In other words, we can say that the author's intention is to create a mysterious and mystical mood.
