An author can control the pacing of a story by changing the sentence structure or how quickly events unfold in a story.

Pacing is a tool used in literature intended to control the speed and rhythm at which a story is told and the readers are pulled through the events. It refers to how fast or slow events in a piece unfold and how much time elapses in a scene or story. Pacing may be employed in order to to show characters aging as well as  the effects of time on story events.

Which clue BEST shows that "lying just opens a Pandora's box"
zhenek [66]

Answer: "You have to keep lying, and soon no one can trust you."

Explanation:

If we lie about something, we must usually invent the whole story to make it convincing. For instance, if a boy lies to his parents that he did his homework, while, in fact, he was playing computer games, he must prepare the story in advance. He must prepare answers to their further questions - which subject it was, what the homework was about, etc. This just creates more problems, because the boy will find himself in the whole web of lies. Moreover, if he gets caught by his parents, they will not trust him anymore. This is why it is much more simple to tell the truth and avoid further problems.
