Dear Grandpa,
Dad told me that your cataract operation has been smooth and you will soon be as fit to read as any other man of letters! I am sure that in a fortnight you shall be back to your books, delving deep into the unfathomable ocean of knowledge, seeking pearls of wisdom not meant for the hoi polloi.
What I really admire about you is the manner in which you have lead a disciplined life to keep yourself away from the kind of depressing health problems that are usually associated with old age. I pray to God that the pain you experienced for your eye vanishes completely and you are again able to live life to the full. You are the best company I have ever had. Your reputation as a raconteur is well-established and your stories have been an inherent part of my education.

To help you start your essay:
the beast literally - the sow's head
the beast figuratively - evil, savagery, violence
lack of civilization → lack of order → violence → death
The savage/evil nature is within all humans. It is a part of human nature, despite any and all attempts to vanquish it.
Answer:
<u>The following are the correct answers to each question</u>:
<u>Question 1: Option C.</u> The descriptive details reveal the excitement of the crowd.
<u>Question 2: Option A.</u> The passage uses dialogue to show how Mr. Frank feels. His words reveal his desire to protect Anne from reality.
Explanation:
The descriptive details on the paragraph of question 1 allow sensory recreations of the whole experience of a swimming race event. The writer uses the descriptive details to reveal the excitement of the crowd, with phrases such as :"Spectators slid to the front of their chairs; many rose."
The paragraph from question 2 is from "The Diary of a Young girl" and is a dialogue between Anne and her father. The use of a dialogue helps to portrait how Mr. Frank feels about the situation his and his family are living, and how he wants to protect Anne from that reality. He says to her not to worry, that he will take care of everything and how she just must enjoy her carefree life.

According to a different source, this question refers to the text "Village Schools and Traveling Soldiers" by Arthur Henderson Smith.
In this text, we learn about the traditional system of education that existed in China during the late 19th century. The author tells us that education is extremely important, but requires the absolute dedication of a student. Therefore, most of the time only one child in the family is able to receive it. If we took the example of twin brothers, we would see that their lives are quite different. While one is always studying, with no physical exercise or training on any practical matter, the other one would be working in the fields, being "wild" and learning a trade.
I would say that the system of education where I live resembles that of the first twin. Students are expected to attend lots of classes and gain a lot of knowledge constantly. Moreover, most students spend more time studying and reading than working in the fields or being active.
