Read the excerpt from chapter 6 of Animal Farm.

Afterwards Squealer made a round of the farm and set the animals’ minds at rest. He assured them that the resolution against engaging in trade and using money had never been passed, or even suggested. It was pure imagination, probably traceable in the beginning to lies circulated by Snowball. A few animals still felt faintly doubtful, but Squealer asked them shrewdly, "Are you certain that this is not something that you have dreamed, comrades? Have you any record of such a resolution? Is it written down anywhere?”

Which statement best explains how the pacing in this passage helps reveal Squealer’s character?

The quickening pace builds suspense about Squealer’s next course of action.
The quickening pace shows how Squealer is similar to Snowball.
The foreshadowing shows that Snowball and Squealer are actually very different.
The slowing pace shows how Squealer controls the animals with propaganda.
