Answer 1

The two correct answers for altering the pacing of a story are:

1. by using short sentences and dialogue - This can create a sense of urgency and speed up the pacing.

2. by using long paragraphs of description or reflection - This can slow down the pacing, allowing for deeper exploration of themes or character thoughts.

Changing the story’s point of view, using chronological order, and introducing new characters are not direct methods for altering pacing in the same way.
