Long pondered, dreary sigh, and eyelids drooped

Answer from: cynthiauzoma367

There are three phrases that refer to the narrative pace of this story: long pondered, dreary sigh and eyelids drooped. In this excerpt, the pace of the story has slowed down and the writer is dedicating a few lines to describe, meticulously, the character's introspective and gloomy behavior as a result of his lack of inspiration. The sentences are long, there is no dialogue, and it seems as if the action had been frozen, or at least slowed up, and all these writing strategies or tools contribute to create a slow pace. Kev had been thinking deeply and for a long time about the essay topic, but he was not inspired, so he sighed drearily, and, perhaps in an attempt to forget momentarily his creative drought, he let his eyelids droop, "and his thoughts drifted." The reader can visualize a weary and hopeless character, who moves slowly and who seems to carry a big weight on his shoulders - a shortage of inspiration can be devastating for writers, and seriously burden them.

hey there!

the reasoning behind university’s having students create prompts is to mainly get to know the person better. they want to know their interests, goals, personality,

it’s also a good way for the university to see the persons focuses in life. for example, if someone’s room is very organized and clean, usually all aspects of their life are the same.

so really, having people prompting to apply to a university is so the college can get more information about that person.

hope this you! if you need any more details, i’d be happy to
