Me read the excerpt from chapter 6 of animal farm. by the autumn the animals were tired but happy. they had had a hard year, and after the sale of part of the hay and corn, the stores of food for the winter were none too plentiful, but the windmill compensated for everything. it was almost half built now. how does the pacing of this passage affect the reader’s interpretation of the text? a flashback to earlier events provides a pause in the pacing to slow events down. foreshadowing of events provides information as to what will happen to the windmill. the pace of the text quickens to convey the characters’ resolve to finish the windmill. the pace of the text quickens to move the story to its climax, the completion of the windmill.

The pacing of this passage affects the reader's interpretation of the text by conveying the characters resolve to finish the windmill.

By reading the excerpt, the reader understands that the animals are not worried about not having too much stores of food because they are willing to compensate this need with the build of the windmill.

The excerpt shows that they are calm because they know how to solve the lack of food, and this calmness is transmitted particularly by this sentence: "the stores of food were none too plentiful, but the windmill compensated for everything. It was almost half built now".

explanation:

the purpose of the heading in the passage is to identify who is telling the story.

this excerpt is part of the book sugar changed the world (2010) written by marc aronson and marina budhos. as the book has been written by two people, the heading "marc" indicates that this specific excerpt is being narrated by aronson. in the fragment, marc describes his grandfather's story after hearing it from his cousin. however, there are other excerpts where budhos is the one that tells the story of her family.

aronson and budhos, who are husband and wife in real life, decided to write sugar changed the world when they found out how sugar, which had an important role in slavery and economy, changed their ancestors' lives.
