I think that it has an average to slow pace, though i'm leaning more towards average.

Answer from: jwoodsk7598

The answer is the second option, "SLOW".

The pace of a text is the speed of the story, it is not the speed of what the story takes place but it is the speed at which the story is told. As you mention in the question, there are some things that can affect the pace and mood of a text such as phrases, fragments, punctuation, the length of the scenes, among other things.

In this particular case, it is evident how punctuation affects the pace of the text because the sentences are long with a lot of commas that are slowing the speed of the text.

Answer from: Quest

the speech this question is referring to is president kennedy's special message to the congress on urgent national needs, may 25, 1961

kennedy responds in a very direct and concrete way to those thinking that communism is a positive system:

"yet their aggression is more often concealed than open. they have fired no missiles; and their troops are seldom seen. they send arms, agitators, aid, technicians and propaganda to every troubled area. but where fighting is required, it is usually done by others--by guerrillas striking at night, by assassins striking alone--assassins who have taken the lives of four thousand civil officers in the last twelve months in vietnam alone--by subversives and saboteurs and insurrectionists, who in some cases control whole areas inside of independent nations." (kennedy)

president kennedy presents communism as cowardly, as a hidden and treacherous weapon that strikes from the shadows like thieves, he represents the system as not even being capable of showing and open and overt attack or confrontation. to finish up the response, he expresses that the system attacks even a country's idependence and freedom.
