At the beginning of the extract, the writer focuses on the T-rex as it is located by the hunting group. The writer describes how "it all ceased... silence... A sound of thunder." The sudden shift in focus interests the reader because it foreshadows the introduction of something mammoth and predatory as all sound of prey have "ceased." Additionally, the use of the minor sentence "Silence." in its own paragraph is further illustrative of the high demand of the T-rex, as it quickens the pace of the extract, reflecting the T-rex's abrupt introduction. Furthermore, the reader's focus is focused on "A sound of thunder," as it is a reference of the book title and thus implies the climax of the story. This interests them by implying that great action and suspense will take place soon. This is typical of the adventure genre as the climax generally begins abruptly to increase suspense by leaving the characters unprepared and thus, foreshadowing their potential downfall. At the end of the extract, the writer interests the reader by mirroring the abruptness at the end of conflict. The writer shifts focus to the T-rex as he describes how the "Tyrannosaurus fell." The juxtaposition between "Tyrannosaurus" and "Tyrant Lizard" from earlier in the extract highlights the shift in power by stripping the T-rex of its menacing name and reducing it to the one the humans gave it. This further interests the reader as it abruptly deletes all tension. This illustrates how the T-rex was surprisingly no match for the humans, which shocks them as it seems paradoxical, given the emphasis placed on the T-rex's masterful ability to kill humans at the beginning of the extract. Furthermore, this interests the reader because the ultimate outcome is put in its own paragraph, creating a physical gap in the tension. This almost reflects the readers holding their breath to expect the death of all the humans.
