In Abbie Rubin's story about her aunt's horseback riding incident, she reflects on how she felt when her horse first bolted. Read the excerpt below and look for instances of reflection. At one point during the ride, controlling him was incredibly difficult because as we were walking along a fence, we startled a mama turkey and, to protect her babies, she flapped her wings and the sound spooked our horses and sent them darting in the opposite direction. I swear, I have never been more scared and paralyzed in my entire life. I was frozen on my horse for a solid 2 seconds, which doesn’t seem like much time, but in the moment, it felt like a century.

The major was a little man with upturned mustaches. he had been in the war in libya and wore two wound-stripes. he said that if the thing went well he would see that i was decorated. i said i hoped it would go well but that he was too kind. i asked him if there was a big dugout where the drivers could stay and he sent a soldier to show me. i went with him and found the dugout, which was very good. the drivers were with it and i left them there. what effect does hemingway’s limited use of adjectives have? it slows down the narration by interrupting the action. it makes the few descriptive words he does use more vivid and forceful. it makes the narrator seem powerless and insincere. it prevents the readers from filling in the details with their own experiences.
