Read this excerpt from "After Twenty Years" by O. Henry.

English
1 answer:
OverLord2011 [107]3 years ago
4 0

The answer is: The pacing slows down the text with deliberate and descriptive language, which gives the story a mysterious atmosphere.

In the excerpt from "After Twenty Years," the author O. Henry describes the winter scene with details about the weather and the how the people in the street are behaving, which gives a sense of mystery to the story.

The rest of the options are incorrect because the events in the passage do not depict surprise, humor or alarm. Besides, there is no further description of the man, and the pacing is not fast.

How did victor feel about Emily in corpse bride?
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

Amazed but also freaked

Explanation:

When Victor was practicing his wedding vows, he slipped his ring onto her hand he mistook for a branch, causing Emily to rise from her grave. After chasing Victor, she took him to the Land of the Dead with her. There, he learned her story, and feigned agreement to marry her to return to the land of the living under the pretense of introducing her to his parents.

This led to a visit with Elder Gutknecht, a wise old skeleton well versed in the magic arts. He gave them a spell that took them to the Land of the Living. The moonlight made Emily feel overjoyed, and she gracefully danced around the woods.

Shortly after this, Victor left Emily there to wait. After a while, she took a bet with Maggot (who suggested that Victor was being unfaithful) and decided to look for Victor. She found him with Victoria Everglot, his true fiancé, and angrily took him back to the Underworld with her and greatly argued with him. Emily called Victoria “the other woman” while Victor tried to explain to her that she was the other woman, but Emily refused to listen and backed up her point by reminding him that she was married to him. Victor then states that they weren’t supposed to be married and accidentally said that he would never marry Emily, which breaks her.

Heartbroken, Emily went to her room and laments about what happened to her and that Victor doesn't love her, being comforted by Black Widow and Maggot while singing a sad yet beautiful song about her current undead status compared to a living young woman.

Later, she was playing a piano piece which was very similar to the one that Victor played in the day he met Victoria. Then Victor came to her room and played the piano along with her, leading them to reconcile with each other rather quickly.

Later, upon learning of the returned Barkis and Victoria's engagement, Victor felt betrayed by his lover, unaware that Victoria was forced into marrying Lord Barkis by her parents who were under the presumption that Barkis was rich.
