What options accurately depict the impact of the boy's words on pacing within the excerpt? (Select all that apply.)
A. The setting is in England, so the boy's words provide the reader with the dialect of the area. Even though that slows down the plot, the boy's words contain important information.
B. The plot's forward movement is slow at the beginning of the excerpt because there is little action. The boy's words increase the tension and counteract that lag.
C. The boy's words serve to speed up the pacing of the plot because, as he is talking to the narrator, he is running past him to get away.
D. The narrator is not close enough to see clearly into the pit, so the boy's words provide the narrator with the information he needs, which moves the plot forward.
