Read the excerpt from "Pecos Bill.”
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

The rising action shows Bill fearlessly taking on the storm.

Explanation:

This is because the excerpt does not introduce Bill, and the tornado is described as ¨awe-inspiring¨, which has a positive connotation. Furthermore, Bill as being described, ¨rode along nice and calm¨. In turn, this shows that he was not pushed beyond his limits.
