As an adult, Wright has a different perspective of his father than he did when he was a child.
In the passage the speaker talks about his father when he says, "there had not been handed to him a chance". This makes it seem as though the speaker understands that his father did not have much of a choice. Then at the end of the passage the speaker says "I forgave him, and pitied him as my eyes look past him to the unpainted wooden shack." These details show that there has been some type of change in the speaker in regards to his father. At one point he may have blamed his father and been angry with him, but this frustration or annoyance is no longer there for the speaker. The way the speaker views his father has changed since he was a boy.

When words are spelled or pronounced in the same way but have different meanings, they are called homonyms.
One of homonyms is the word "current" which can mean:
- something happening at the present time
- a movement of body of water in a certain direction
- the flow of electrical energy
In the first answer, the outlet is a device whose purpose is to connect electrical devices to an electrical supply (plugging it in the socket). So, it's electrical current.
In the second answer, it denotes the moving of the water
In the third answer, it means that Todd's present roommate in neat.
In the fourth answer, since it comes from a wire and causes a spark, it denotes electrical current.
Finally, since Vanya is in the river, it denotes a flow of the water.
1. One paragraph focuses on one subject and the next focuses on a different one that's related to the first one.
2. Sentences have structures like "____ is like this, while/but/however ____ is like that".
3. Sentences say something to the effect of "Both ____ are like this".
2 and 3 are also easy ways to identify compare and contrast essays if you simply apply this logic to the thesis statement in the introductory paragraph.
