Question

"A Huge Mistake" The problem was that I couldn’t wait the decades it would take until I earned enough for a car as incredible as my mom’s because Juliana, the girl I had a crush on since eighth grade, had finally agreed to go out with me. Basically, this was the miracle I had been waiting for since I was thirteen, and miracles didn’t come around every day. Wouldn’t it be crazy, though, to pick Juliana up in a car that had cost as much as a small house, especially since I had just gotten my driver’s license? Extreme times called for extreme measures, and I decided that I would have to become extremely convincing. I began begging my mom to let me drive the car for just one evening. I reasoned, I badgered, and I pleaded until my mom became extremely annoyed, but to my amazement, she relented! She agreed to allow me three hours, and three hours only, with the car to take Juliana to the movies! How does the rapid pace of this paragraph affect the story?

Answer 1

Answer: The rapid pace of the paragraph shows that the situation that he has waited so much has not happened yet, and that he is telling us the story feeling expectation and anxiety. What may cause the same feeling to the person who is reading this text fragment.
