  1. Answer: A. By changing the sentence structure or how quickly events unfold in a story.

    An author controls the pacing of a story by changing the sentence structure and varying the speed at which events unfold. Short sentences and rapid action sequences can quicken the pace, while longer sentences and detailed descriptions can slow it down, allowing for reflection and depth.
