Answer:

What is really stated in this passage is that absinthe tastes like licorice, and that everything else that a person waits a long time to try also tastes like licorice. What this passage actually means, however, is that things are better (or seem better) when you wait for them. For example, a driver's license is not an extraordinary thing in itself, but it seems so much better when a person has had to wait his or her whole life to obtain it. The freedom of being on the road may even also be described as "sweet"- like licorice.

The things that people wait for in life (unless they are food-related, technically) do not actually taste like licorice, but it relates the literal action of the story to the figurative meaning behind it by relating to the reader's understanding that things seem sweeter when they have been looked forward to for a long time.

Which line of dialogue makes

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

The following dialogue from the coach makes Jeremy to understand his strength as an athlete:

Coach: Those little one don't need to see flawless execution, they need to know how to try, fail and keep going anyway.

Explanation:

When Jeremy came to the coach to apologize for his bad performance and how he messed up when the coach really wanted him to impress the boys, the coach told him that he was as aspiring as he expected. Jeremy was a little surprised by the coach's statement and told him that if it would have been a competition, he would have gotten points deducted for various reasons. Before Jeremy could name any reason, coach interrupted him and explained it to him that the little kids need to know that you have to try, fail and still keep going, which they couldn't learn with a flawless execution. This boosted Jeremy's confidence in his strength as an athlete
