Answer:
1. In the second sermon, Paneloux refers to the New Testament by comparing the suffering of the "earthly" father at the death of his child with God's suffering at the death of Christ. Paneloux says that the cross is the symbol, face to face, with the suffering child.
2. Paneloux dies, clutching a crucifix. His death, however, is less violent than a typical plague death, and his case is recorded as a "Doubtful case."
3 Soon thereafter, Paneloux falls ill, but he refuses to consult a doctor. His symptoms do not conform to those of the plague, so when he dies, Rieux marks him as a "doubtful case."
It helps you imagine what they're doing in the story
At the start of Don Quixote, Mr. Quixana spends his days reading stories about knights. Due to having read many such stories, this character changes his name to Don Quixote, wanting to imitate such chivalrous knights.
We will not know because we don't know the story.
I may be too late, but if you're looking for an ending, you should tie up a few loose ends, and leave it on a cliffhanger. If you're not allowed too, then you may want to tie [mostly] everything up. I'm sorry that I'm bad at writing..
