William Faulkner, The Sound and the Fury
Analyze:
In this sentence, form imitates meaning. How does Faulkner slow the sentence down, reinforcing the sentence’s meaning?
Answer:
Faulkner slow the sentence down, reinforcing the sentence’s meaning by using words that help convey this idea.
Explanation:
If you pay attention, as soon as you begin to read the phrase, you find "I slowed still more" and somehow your brain also "makes reading slow". Continue like this by adding the word "dragging" reinforcing this idea.
The choice of an author's words has a lot to do with the impact it will have on the reading. That is why the authors use tools such as tone or voice to generate these effects.

Which kind of pronoun is the boldfaced word
Answer:
it is a verb
Explanation:
Identify which line is NOT a Key Detail that supports the main idea:
One type of weather event the sun produces is wind. Even so, it takes days for the solar wind to travel from the sun to Earth. At those speeds, a trip from New York City to Los Angeles would take from 5 to 10 seconds. It moves at an average speed of 400 kilometers per second. The solar wind is a steady stream of particles that flows out from the sun in all
directions.
One type of weather event the sun produces is wind.
Even so, it takes days for the solar wind to travel from the sun to Earth.
At those speeds, a trip from New York City to Los Angeles would take from 5 to 10 seconds.
It moves at an average speed of 400
The solar wind is a steady stream of particles that flows out from the sun in all directions
Answer: At those speeds, a trip from New York City to Los Angeles would take from 5 to 10 seconds.
Explanation:
''At those speeds, a trip from New York City to Los Angeles would take from 5 to 10 seconds.'' is a detail that is not supporting the main idea because it is excessive. The main idea of the paragraph is describing the type of weather event between the sun and the wind including speed and type of the wind.
Because of that, we can feel that the described trip from New York City to Los Angeles is a sentence that does not belong in this passage and this one sentence is acting outstandingly in the passage.Other sentences are well connected and that is why they are incorrect answers.

Story about the beginning of something
Answer:
Your question is incomplete, but the description you are providing corresponds to the definition of a myth.
Explanation:
A myth is a wonderful narrative starring gods, heroes or fantastic characters, located outside of historical time, which explains or gives meaning to certain events or phenomena.
Myths, in this sense, are part of the belief system of a people or culture. Taken together, myths make up a mythology. Mythology, as such, is what sustains the worldview of a culture, that is, the set of stories and beliefs with which a people has traditionally explained to themselves the origin and reason for being of everything that surrounds them.
In this sense, myths offer explanations about the origin of the world (cosmogony), of the gods (theogony), of man on Earth (anthropogenic), of the foundation of cultures and nations (foundational), of beings, things, techniques and institutions (etiological), as well as the origin of good and evil (moral) and stories associated with the idea of the end of the world (eschatological).
A story about the beginning of something is a myth and was used a lot by ancient societies.
We can arrive at this answer because:
A myth was a narrative created by people to explain various elements of the real world and to convey religious concepts.These stories constantly explained the beginning of things like the beginning of the world, the beginning of human beings, the emergence of nature, the beginning of religion, the beginning of societies, among others.Thus, when presenting the beginning of anything, myths had educational goals, as they want to present information to people.These myths were very important for the knowledge of societies, in addition to being very valuable literary pieces, created before writing existed.
