56. Respond in a paragraph with complete sentences.

Answer 1

I would edit this to fit your writing style, but your answer should be along the lines of, "The work I have chosen is 'The Swimming Contest' by Benjamin Tummaz. The short story is based in the summer home in the Orange Groves of an Arabian woman, also known as 'The Grandmother,' who just happens to be a patient of a Jewish doctor, the mother of the narrator. The narrator loses in a swimming race against an Arabian boy at the gove, and promises the boy that once he grows up he will beat him. The setting of the story is important to the overall story because it relates to conflicts in Israel between Arabs and Jews today; Just as the Jewish and Arab boys competed in the race, so do the two groups fight for the territory in Israel."

**Remember to edit it to fit your style**

Hope this helps :)
