Read the excerpt from The Remains of the Day by Kazuo Ishiguro. Based on sentence structure, what is the pacing of the excerpt?

Why?
For the truth was, it was extremely refreshing to be out in the summerhouse after many continuous days in the main building and neither of us was inclined to hurry with our tasks. Indeed, although one could not see out far that day on account of the encroaching mist, and the daylight too was rapidly fading by this stage, . . . I remember our often breaking off from our respective activities simply to gaze out at the views around us.

Answer:

C. leisurely; to reflect the relaxed situation described

Explanation:

In this excerpt from The Remains of the Day by Kazuo Ishiguro, the pacing of the selection is lackadaisical so as to mirror the relaxed situation portrayed. This must be done that way in order to present an idea clearly.

Answer: To guard against the influence of factions while preserving liberty.

Match each mode of narration to the excerpt that uses it.
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

Passage 1 and 2 - Flashback.

Passage 3- Flash forward.

Explanation:

Flashback is the going back to the time in the past which was set before the present scene. Flashbacks provide the extra crucial information from the past to the current situation. They are a character's thinking or reminiscing of the times gone by. Passages 12 and 2 deal with the characters thinking back tro the times they had experienced or done. So, flashback will be matched with passage 1 and 2.

Flash-forward is the exact opposite of flashback. It represents the occurrence or presentation of scenes yet to come or expected to happen in the coming future scenes. Passage 3 reveals/ deals with what is to happen or to be expected in the future ("<em>Let me behold what I shall be in the days to come</em>") . This will be paired with passage 3.
