Mr. Elmo Norman, my elementary school principal, was the most nervous man I have ever met. He was a short, pudgy man, always ove

r-dressed. In fact, he didn't just wear his clothes--he hid inside them. His uniform consisted of a neatly pressed pin-striped suit, a thin black tie over a starched white shirt, and a pair of brightly polished brown Oxfords. His receding gray hair was always neatly trimmed, and his fat, wrinkled head always darted about like a radar blip on his neck. He paced the school hallways in a perpetual motion of twitching, fidgeting, and twiddling. In the space of a minute, he would wrinkle his little nose, scratch his plump chin, shrug his shoulders, straighten his tie, and glance at his watch, never once looking directly at the person he was with. As he spoke in his lackadaisical drawl, he would glance at the ceiling, inspect his knuckles, and check the floorboards for dust. When the conversation was over, he would dash back into his office like a frightened bunny, probably praying that he could lock himself in there forever. And for all I know, he may still be hiding there in his office today.
b.  Underline OR highlight the words, phrases, or sentences that give clues to Mr. Elmo Norman’s CHARACTER    traits in the paragraph.
c.  What is the POINT OF VIEW that this story is being told from?  
d.  HOW do you KNOW that it is this type of point of view?

In lines 276-278 the knight moans
Vinil7 [7]

Answer: She said that he should have respect

Explanation:

The knight is not satisfied because he has the old woman for his wife and she is also someone who is not from a wealthy family. She is responding to that, that he should know that real wealth is not coming from someone else's finances, real wealth should be about a persons' character.

When they were talking about her age, he said to him that he should have respect because of that and her age should earn his respect. She was also saying that her ugliness should show him that she could not have a lover or do something to him behind his back.

After reading the story, did you feel that a situation like the one in "The Cold Equations" could actually happen?
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:  Yes kinda but on the other hand no because Which sentence could be added after sentence 4 to support the first paragraph?

Explanation: Furthermore, riding a bicycle is a great way to exercise and to breathe fresh air. The traffic in neighborhoods near schools would also be considerably lighter.

A car that is running while sitting in line gives off just as much pollution as a moving car. The school district would save a great amount of money if fewer buses were needed.
