Which detall Identifies the point where the pacing speeds up in this excerpt?
Oduvanchick [21]

The detail that identifies the point where the pacing speeds up in the excerpt from "The Necklace" is in line 20, "She went up," as explained below.

<h3>What is pace?</h3>

We can define pace as the speed at which actions take place in a story. Authors determine pace by using longer or shorter sentence structures. The shorter the sentences, the quicker the pace.

That is why we can select the detail "She went up" in the excerpt from "The Necklace" as the point where the pacing speeds up. Before that sentence, the author used long sentences that, in a way, slow the pace down. From "She went up" on, the author uses shorter sentences, narrating one action right after the other, quickly.

We can conclude, thus, that the correct detail to identify where the story's pacing speeds up is "She went up."
