Answer:

Check answers below.

Explanation:

Sport is a unifying factor among people of different family, ethnic, cultural and national backgrounds. Sports make people forget their differences and strive to achieve a singular goal, victory. Members of the same team in a sporting event forget all their differences and work together to come out victorious. This can be seen from the way the kids of Tutsis and Hutus played soccer lovingly together disregarding the fight between the two groups.

Innocent and Laura's experiences with soccer caused a great change in their lives. Soccer gave them the privilege of friendship which made them better individuals in their careers. The friends Innocent made at Iowa taught him how to speak English quite well and how to play American games. This friendly encounter gave Innocent a bright future. Laura who also suffered neglect from his school's team, Los Halcones, was helped by her friends to improve her skills. She found encouragement in the presence and support of her friends and soon became a better player.

Innocent and his parents were refugees in Mkugwa, but he was not dejected because he spent his time playing football with his friends. When his family relocated to America, they faced the challenge of not understanding their language but on getting to school, playing football helped Innocent to overcome this challenge. His friend taught him how to speak this language and communicate properly with it. Soccer also helped Laura never to give up in challenges. She put in all her best into practice and rehearsals based on the advice of her mother and the presence of her friends in her practice made her to overcome the challenging times and become a better person.

In lines 18–32, the woman
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

hope this helps ( i am not very clever so if it doesn't help, please delete this answer)

Explanation:

1) "'lady, i am sorry' whisper the boy"

2) "dragging the frightened boy behind her"

These both show how the boy is scared. in the first examples, the boy whispers which show that he could be trembling. the second example, (which isn't a good example) show that he is scared of the woman. the woman seems to want the boy to be scared and she doesn't have any respect for the poor boy, this is also shown in the line "she did not release him".
