While some artists paint with watercolors, others prefer oil. the two types of paints are similar in
some ways. both are used for creating beautiful paintings, and both use similar pigments (a pigment
is a powdered substance that gives paint its color). for example, the powder from an iron mineral
called ocher is used to make yellow ocher. a metal called cadmium produces a bright red pigment.
while artists sometimes use both kinds of paints, there are important differences between oils and
watercolors. first, they use a different medium. watercolor pigments come in tubes and are mixed
with purified water. however, the colors can also be found in small pads of dry pigment to which
water must be added. oil paint is made by mixing pigments with linseed oil, made from plants.
second, watercolors dry very quickly on paper, while oil paint dries very slowly. third, watercolors
can be made stronger or weaker by the amount of water added, while oil paints are altered by adding
either linseed oil or turpentine

Read the excerpt from the war of the worlds, in which the crowd begins to disperse just before the first martian exits the cylinder.when i returned to the common the sun was setting. scattered groups were hurrying from the direction of woking, and one or two persons were returning. the crowd about the pit had increased, and stood out black against the lemon yellow of the sky—a couple of hundred people, perhaps. there were raised voices, and some sort of struggle appeared to be going on about the pit. strange imaginings passed through my mind. as i drew nearer i heard stent's voice: "keep back! keep back! "a boy came running towards me."it's a-movin'," he said to me as he passed; 'a-screwin' and a-screwin' out. i don't like it. i'm a-goin' 'ome, i am."what options accurately depict the impact of the boy's words on pacing within the excerpt?
