Answer:
I think Morrie is very sad and possibly depressed because of the way he's been treated.
I don't think Morrie would get an answer soon.
Explanation:
Morrie's outburst is characterised by depressed people who have been dealt a cruel blow by life and are already disillusioned.
Morrie could be a victim of emotional, physical, or verbal abuse which has shaken him to his very core and make life seem not to hold any glitter for him anymore.
He's trying to express his pain that's why he burst out like that, wondering why the world hasn't stopped and asking if what was done to him was known by others.
He's likely not going to get any answer soon because his question is a rhetorical question (question that needs no answer) and because he's thinking aloud and not complaining to anybody nearby.
Connections and summarizing are the correct words.
I believe the answer is D. The horrid brute shot stabbing flames from his blackened fingertips.
Let's read the text again...
My grandfather the fisherman always told me that the best way to communicate with fish is to drop them a line.
There are three phrases that help us to understand the pun in the text: The grandfather is a fisherman, it means his job is to catch fish, by communicate he means to make the fish come closer, and by drop them a line he means the fishing rod thread.
Taking the above into account the correct answers are:
A.“communicate” and “drop them a line”
B.The pun plays on a phrase that means both to send a note and to attempt to catch a fish.
