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.

Committee

Explanation:

Fewer is used for things that can be counted such as, kids, chairs, balloons, etc...

Less is used for singular mass nouns

Here’s a tip: A good way to test that a noun is truly uncountable is to try making a plural out of it.

Example: I told Cookie Monster to drink fewer/less milks or he would get sick?

Because Milk is a liquid, we can't count it. Making 'less' the proper word choice

Example: I told Cookie Monster to drink less milk or he would get sick?

I hope this helped!
