Answer:
Part A: c). Pacing
Part B: d). To build tension
Explanation:
Part A
Pacing is characterized as the literary device in which the author opts for a certain pace/speed to unfold the story in order to prevent the readers from being bored due to the length of the story. In the given excerpt, the author <u>employs 'pacing' as he begins with a brief informative sentence '...then I heard' and this action is immediately stopped and the pace of the story is slowed down using a lengthy 'complex-compound' sentence</u>. Thus, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.
Part B
The key purpose for which the author employs 'pacing' is 'to build tension.' The excerpt <u>begins with a strange detail regarding the 'vibrations of the chain.' This action is immediately frozen in order to get involved in his own psychological problems('hearken to it with the more satisfaction, I ceased my labors and sat down upon the bones')</u>. This develops tension in the readers' minds <u>by leaving them uncertain about what would happen next</u>. Thus, <u>option d</u> is the correct answer.

Enjoying poetry is probably not something that would
separate a person from broader culture because all people enjoy different
things. This would lead to the question,
then, “Why would all things separate people from each other?” If that were so, society would be separated
into tiny fragments based upon likes, which is not really the case when you
think about it. Within any group of
people, you will find each like different things—you will find artists who like
mountain climbing and those who don’t; you will find mountain climbers who like
knitting and those who don’t. If
anything, it would provide another element with which people could potentially
connect to another facet of the broader culture to which they belong. Because of that same rationale, the reading
of popular novels can definitely be seen to connect us. Additionally, even if some people liked a
popular novel and some people did not, they could have the opportunity to
connect in a conversation where they discussed their reasons for their
respective feelings for the novel. Thus,
literature of all types has a unifying element however small or insignificant
it may seem.
