Attributive Is The Answer To Your Question. :)
a particular order in which related things follow each other, a set of related events, movements, or items that follow each other
This question is missing the answer choices. I have found them online. Since the passage is the same, I will omit it:
What technique does the author use to build suspense in the excerpt?
A. word choice
B. quickening the pace of the story
C. intentionally omitting setting details
D. making the outcome of events uncertain
Answer:
The technique the author uses to build suspense is:
C. intentionally omitting setting details
Explanation:
The setting of a story is the place where and the time when the story happens. When an author wishes to make the setting clear, he will give out details and descriptions to help readers visualize it.
<u>However, that is not what happens in the excerpt we are analyzing here. The author intentionally leaves out details to build suspense. He does not offer a description of the museum and, most importantly, of the objects inside the museum. What are the "hulking objects" he mentions? Mummies? Old statues? What do they look like? We do not know. All we know is that they cast long shadows and stretch across the floor. By describing them so poorly, the author creates suspense, leaving readers wondering about these objects and their role in the story.</u>
The author develops the theme of the story through the oppressive scenario and the unstable emotional state of the characters.
<h3>What is the theme?</h3>
- It is the message conveyed by the text.
- It is teaching presented to the reader while reading.
In "Condensed milk" we can see that psychological instability, violence, and oppression are highly limiting elements and should not be encouraged.
The author uses this as the theme of the story and develops this theme through a very oppressive scenario, where the characters are treated with violence and terror. This environment manipulates the characters' minds, making them wish for death and life at the same time, without being able to conclude what they should do.
