PLEASE HELP! I dont know how to do this type of stuff and im confused, its my LAST QUESTION! Today, the day just did not go as I had planned. I had an interview and I was running late for it. I pushed aside people in the crowded subway station and sprinted to platform number one, only to see the train leave as soon as I reached the platform. Since the trains were running late, I had to quickly run back, take the stairs, and cross the street to get to the bus stop. The train delay meant that many people would have the same experience that I did. Consequently, the bus stop was crowded with people, and I could barely find any space to plant myself and wait for the bus. I had to decide whether to wait for the bus, crowded with people, or pay an unreasonable amount for a cab ride. Every moment counted, and I didn’t really have any to spare. Looking around, the roads appeared empty, and I decided to treat myself to a cab ride. Being able to finally rest my feet, I relaxed as the cab zoomed past a couple of blocks. Suddenly, the cab stopped. I looked to see why, and to my horror, I traced a line of traffic ahead of me that didn’t seem to end. The cab would start, crawl half a foot, and then stop. My mind could hardly deal with all the events that had just conspired to work against me. I was seven blocks away from the office building and decided to walk. I quickly jogged my way through packed streets and when I reached the office, I was too late. The somewhat dismissive receptionist at the office informed me that they had completed the first round of interviews and politely told me that I was too late and had missed my interview.

What phrase does the author use to depict the pace in the passage?
A.
sprinted to platform number one
B.
barely find any space
C.
the office informed me
D.
the bus stop was crowded with
