Review the excerpt from "Lather and Nothing Else." The lather was drying on his face. I must hurry. Through the mirror, I took a

Answer:

  • I must hurry
  • Then I glanced at the clock, two-thirty.

Explanation:

These two phrases speed up the story and create a suspense, because it shows that the character is in a hurry and time is passing and he can not stop time, this gives the reader a sense of anticipation and fast pace. In addition, the reader does not know why the character is in such a hurry, which creates a tone of suspense and mystery.

Which of the following settings best create fear or anxiety? Falling snow Sunrise Open fields Decaying trees
Lerok [7]
A sunrise most definitely cannot be associated with either of those things, the sun is most often symbolic of something good or happy. Falling snow also does not create a sense of fear or anxiety, when thinking of snow I think of peace and quiet, serenity. Some might even feel happy or joywhen thinking about snow because it is most often associated with Christmas. I also think that an open field does not stir feelings of fear, that is unless you give details or descriptions to make it scary. I would say a setting with decaying trees best creates fear and anxiety. The word decay literally means " the state or process of rotting or decomposition". It is associated with death, and death is most often viewed as frightening and mysterious. Hope this helps .
