The pace of the passage in question can be described as fast. Syntactic structures, that is, the type of phrases and sentences that make up a text, really affect the pace and mood of a text. In addition, punctuation also contributes to create the image the reader can get from the narrator.

In this pasage, the narrator is really nervous and this is shown in the type of sentences and punctuation chosen. Sentences are quite short and interrupted by dashes as if the narrator was out of breath when uttering them.

<span>I would describe the pace of the following passage as fast. </span>The use of phrases, fragments, and punctuation really affects the pace and mood of a text. In the first phrases, we can feel the emotion of the narrator as having been shocked and his emotions are flowing so fast it is observed in how it is presented in the presence of the exclamation marks and the continuous presence of the dashes in between phrases. You can feel it as you try to read the passage. His anger and torment on the immortality of man.

Hello,

Considering I don't know what text you're referring to, I'll just answer the question as defining it.
