Pyramus’s long speech slows the pace to prolong suspense.

The statement that best describes how the pace of the excerpt creates tension is: Pyramus’s long speech slows the pace to prolong suspense.

The speech, describing Pyramus's thoughts on her death and how guilty he feels about it, even going so far as to wish and call for his own death at the teeth of lions, creates tension by making the suspense of what will happen next last longer.

Answer:

“conduct me where you will. I went forth last night on compulsion, and I learnt a lesson which is working now. To-night, if you have aught to teach me, let me profit by it.”

Explanation

Compare and contrast the two trickster tales "Iktomi and the Ducks" and "Iktomi's Blanket." Identify the theme of each and expla
Grace [21]
<span>Both stories are old Indian legends that involve the same character a trickster spider fairy named Iktomi. In the Ducks and the Blanket story Iktomi is hungry but in both stories he isn't successful in eating the food. Even when he tricked the ducks the wolves got the food and the deer meat disappeared because in both cases he was worried about what ever else was going on and not eating his food. I think this story is trying to tell people to complete tasks before moving on.</span>
