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 create a sense of urgency and speed up the pacing, while long paragraphs of description or reflection can slow down the pacing and allow for deeper exploration of themes or emotions.
