Answer 1

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

1. by using short sentences and dialogue
2. by using long paragraphs of description or reflection

Short sentences and dialogue can speed up the pace, creating a sense of urgency or quick action, while long paragraphs of description or reflection can slow down the pace, allowing for deeper exploration of themes or character thoughts.
