Read the paragraph.


Jenna hoisted her backpack and hustled toward her locker. She fidgeted her foot while twirling the familiar numbers, silently reciting the properties of matter she expected to see on her science test. With a hasty stuff-and-switch maneuver, she grabbed the notebook needed for her first class.


Which words reveal the pace of the story? Check all that apply.

Respuesta :

fidgeted
hustled
hasty

Answer:

I believe the answer to be "hustled" and "hasty".

Explanation:

Since we are talking about pace, the words that seem to best reveal it are "hustled" and "hasty". The character we're reading about in this excerpt, Jenna, seems to be in a hurry, trying to get to class at the same time she's trying to study and memorize what she thinks will be on her test.

"To hustle" means to hurriedly move toward a certain direction. "Hasty" is the quality of being done urgently and swiftly.
