The author of "My Brother's Keeper" emphasizes Jaime's conflict by flashing back to earlier events with his brother Ted.

In "My Brother's Keeper", the author includes the line "and Jaime thought to himself, this time it must be bad" in Jamie's phone conversation with Ted in order to develop Ted as a character who often is in trouble.

Answer:

Flashing back to earlier events with his brother Ted.

Develop Ted as a character who often is in trouble.

Explanation:

In "My Brother's Keeper," the narrator is telling us about the conflicts that two brothers endure. These are Ted and Jamie. Ted is the older brother, however, he is often in trouble and Jamie is responsible for helping him out. The narrator emphasizes this conflictive pattern by flashing back to earlier events with Ted.

The fact that Jamie thought to himself "this time it must be bad" emphasizes that this is one of many times in which Jamie has received a similar call. This highlights the fact that Ted is a person who is often in trouble. It also conveys the idea that it is Jamie who often has to help him out.

IceJOKER [234]

I looked it up online and found the question related to this personal statement. It is the following:

Why does the writer need to revise the personal statement?

A. sentence 1 should include the writer’s first name.

B. sentence 2 should state what the essay prompt was.

C. sentence 3 should avoid mentioning money.

D. sentence 4 should avoid the extreme opinion.

Answer:

The reason why the writer needs to revise the personal statement is:

C. sentence 3 should avoid mentioning money.

Explanation:

<u>A personal statement is supposed to be a brief description of oneself in connection to the career one wishes to pursue. It should mention one's experience, education, and strengths in relation to that field. However, mentioning money should be avoided.</u> The personal statement is not the "place" to do so. Instead of sounding ambitious in a good way, talking about "good money" - as the writer did in the passage we are analyzing here - may make one sound shallow.

<span>Poem:
  Danny Deever
by Rudyard Kipling (excerpt)
  "What are the bugles blowin' for?" said Files-on-Parade.
"To turn you out, to turn you out", the Colour-Sergeant said.
"What makes you look so white, so white?" said Files-on-Parade.
 "I'm dreadin' what I've got to watch", the Colour-Sergeant said.
For they're hangin' Danny Deever, you can hear the Dead March play,
The regiment's in 'ollow square—they're hangin' him to-day;
They've taken of his buttons off an' cut his stripes away,
An' they're hangin' Danny Deever in the mornin'.
  "What makes the rear-rank breathe so 'ard?" said Files-on-Parade.
 "It's bitter cold, it's bitter cold", the Colour-Sergeant said.
"What makes that front-rank man fall down?" said Files-on-Parade.
"A touch o' sun, a touch o' sun", the Colour-Sergeant said.
They are hangin' Danny Deever, they are marchin' of 'im round,
They 'ave 'alted Danny Deever by 'is coffin on the ground;
An' 'e'll swing in 'arf a minute for a sneakin' shootin' hound—
O they're hangin' Danny Deever in the mornin'!
</span>
If you are, then the answer would be letter A. <span> the movement of soldiers on foot.</span>
