The correct answer is D) As she walked vaguely up the steps she shifted the small pot from hand to hand; then she had to set in down and remove her mittens before she could open the heavy door.

<em>The example from a "Visit Charity" that slows down the peacing of the history is "As she walked vaguely up the steps she shifted the small pot from hand to hand; then she had to set in down and remove her mittens before she could open the heavy door."</em>

In this part of the story, the author changes the peace, which means it changes the speed of the way the story is told. What happens here is that the author slows the history down in order to make detailed descriptions of the scene and the character. So when the writer does this detailed description of things, he/she is changing the speed of the story. In this case, making it slow.

What can you infer from the following phrases in the opening paragraph, "…there seemed an intangible pall…" and "…a subtle gloom
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

We can infer something bad will happen.

Explanation:

From the phrases in the opening paragraph,  "…there seemed an intangible pall…" and "…a subtle gloom that made the day dark…" we can safely infer the story will take a tragic turn. A pall is a cloth placed over a coffin. Therefore, from the very beginning, the writer subtly alludes to death. Darkness is also commonly related to death, to fear, to hopelessness, while light or brightness is connected to the precise opposite.

As it turns out, those sentences function as foreshadowing. The main character in the short story "To Build a Fire" does indeed die. He underestimates nature's fierceness. Unable to protect himself from the harsh cold weather in the Yukon territory, he dies acknowledging his mistake.
