Compare the pace of the middle and end of the story. how is the pace different? why do you think the author chose to change the pace in different parts of the text? write three or four sentences to explain your answer

middle: confound the hour he entered my shop! i am a revolutionary but not a murderer. and it would be so easy to kill him. he deserves it. or does he? no! no one deserves the sacrifice others make in becoming assassins. what is to be gained by it? nothing. others and still others keep coming, and the first kill the second, and then these kill the next, and so on until everything becomes a sea of blood. i could cut his throat, so, swish, swish! he would not even have time to moan, and with his eyes shut he would not even see the shine of the razor or the gleam in my eye.

end: ",” he said. he walked to the wardrobe for his belt, his pistol, and his cap. i must have been very pale, and i felt my shirt soaked with sweat. torres finished adjusting his belt buckle, straightened his gun in its holster, and smoothing his hair mechanically, put on his cap. from his trousers pocket he took some coins to pay for the shave. and he started toward the door. on the threshold he stopped for a moment, and turning toward me, he said, "they told me you would kill me. i came to find out if it was true. but it’s not easy to kill. i know what i’m talking about.”

Which is the best paraphrase of the text? the capability of a bicycle makes some people want to go very fast and others to go very slow. as long as you are careful, feel free to ride like the wind. when feeling brave on a bicycle you should ride fast, but when feeling afraid riding slow is wise. if you are unable to coast, it is pointless to even ride. if you’re going to ride a bicycle, you should throw caution to the wind and take over the road, swerving where you like and taking full advantage of your ride. it’s a real joy to be able to ride a bicycle, where you have the choice of going as fast or as slow as you like, using as much courage as you feel like using.
