Which statement best evaluates the author's use of pacing to enhance the narrative?
William looked over his shoulder at the path that wound down the
mountain behind him, then slowly turned and peered at the path that
stretched before him. Two hours of hiking a rugged and rocky path,
and yet his team still had not reached the peak. Weighed down with
exhaustion and burdensome boots, he picked up his foot and took a
step. The splendor of the mountain's peak called to him, and the only
way to answer was by putting one foot in front of the other.

the answer is: round.

in literature, round characters are considerably complex and experience or are subjected to unpleasant situations. as a consequence, they go through crucial sentimental and psychological development, which can cause surprise in the readers. in this case, juan's dramatic transformation is related to the adversities he meets at school.

ed brushes his teeth

explanation:

the answer is a because the astrophel does more and sidney goes to the astrophel more than stella.

the book's theme is the moral ambiguity of the iranian revolution, history of middle eastern relations and the process of growing up during war. it sheds light on the stereotypical views of middle eastern culture and religion.

the author explicitly portrays the issues of class disparities and racism continously throught the whole novel.

the relationship between parents and childrens, the abandonment of faith, modernity vs fundamentalism and class conflict are the 4 main panels that this novel englobes.
