Answer:
The above excerpt is a good example of the many storytelling devices used in 1001 Nights except surprise ending.
Explanation:
<u>The excerpt we are analyzing here does have elements of repetition, dialogue and recurring theme. However, it is not a good example of surprise ending, and the reason for that is very simple. </u>Take a look at how the excerpt ends:
<em>The porter was so dazzled he could hardly believe that he heard her aright, but he shouldered his basket in hot haste, saying in himself, "O day of good luck! O day of Allah's grace!" and walked after her till she stopped at the door of a house.</em>
<u>This is not a proper ending. As a matter of fact, this is the beginning of the story. Readers are left expecting, wondering what happens to the porter and the mysterious woman once they reach that door.</u> It might very well be that the story does have an interesting ending, but we are analyzing the excerpt only. And the excerpt does not have an ending whatsoever.
The first one means that you tried to stop feeling nervous or you tried to swallow so much that you couldn't.
The second one means that you are getting more nervous, or anxious.
