This question is missing the excerpt. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:
Read the excerpt from Heart of a Samurai. Goemon jumped up. "Agreed," he said, jamming his "knife" into his sash and slashing at Manjiro’s "sword." Their imaginary swords clashed and clattered as they lunged or leaped aside to avoid being hit. Which words contribute most to the excerpt’s pace?
A. "imaginary" and "aside"
B. "sash" and "swords"
C. "slashing" and "lunged"
D. "Goeman" and "Manjiro"
Answer:
The words that contribute most to the excerpt's pace are C. "slashing" and "lunged".
Explanation:
<u>When we think of pace, we think of rhythm, of moving fast, slow, with regularity, with cadence, etc. </u>The words an author uses help readers feel the pace of what is being described more intensely. <u>If the characters are acting or moving fast, or if conflicts are developing slowly, the only way for readers to visualize that is through the author's word-choice. In the case of the excerpt we are studying here, we can say the writer establishes a fast pace through the use of the words "slashing" and "lunged". Both words imply rapidity of movement, celerity, quickness and, for that reason, has the readers imagining the scene in a vivid, accelerated manner.</u>

The role of nature, seasons and climate is to promote the challenges that the postman needs to overcome.
We can arrive at this answer because:
- "The postmaster" shows the daily life of a postman, his difficulties, and his joys with this working uncle.
- As we know, a postman has to face many difficulties to complete his deliveries and one of these difficulties is related to nature.
- This is because nature, seasons, and weather can make it difficult for the postman to arrive at his final destination, as it can promote difficult terrain to walk and very cold or very hot climates.
In this case, we can say that nature, seasons, and weather have a very strong impact on the story, as it interacts directly with the postman and his goals.
