Ann has written two introductions for a short story. Read both introductions. (1) Sheryl stared up at Stone Man Mountain, its ragged peak lit by the rising sun. Around her, the world was early-morning peaceful. A faint breeze played among the trees. "Am I ready?" she wondered, adjusting her climbing gear. (2) Only a soft wind sifting through the trees disturbed daybreak’s stillness. Stone Man Mountain rose up before me, its summit touched with gold by the dawning sun. Adjusting my heavy climbing gear, I thought, "Okay, Sheryl, I hope you’re up for this!" What is the difference between these introductions that will affect how Ann structures her story?
