In lines 140-150, what hasn't changed is that the father still switches off the electricity generator at 10 p.m. and goes to sleep in his study. The expression "as was custom" marks that this has not changed.
The language that shows that the father is changing can be found in lines 141, 173 and 175-176:
In line 141 we learn that he does not use certain rooms ("rooms we'd stopped using").
In line 173 we read that the father "seemed lighter" and chatted with his son.
In lines 175-176 the father says that "now he might be able to come to the end-of-the-year recital" at his child's school.
That they are not real.
they are made up.
and they are in stories for children.
hope I helped
Courage means standing up for what you believe in despite what anyone says. Courage also means not being selfish and putting others first. When a person is courageous, they aren’t just brave, they are brave enough to do the right thing. Because sometimes people don’t do the right thing because it isn’t ‘easy’ or everyone else is doing something else. Courage is standing up and speaking out. Courage is being a good person.
