English

Answer:

When you say, "to swallow something hook, line, and sinker" it means to completely fall for whatever was said or to completely believe what was told or presented. Usually, what was presented is a lie, and when the person is gullible enough to believe it, the phrase applies.

Willy hopes that Biff will make something of himself, yet Biff drifts from job to job without any ambition in life. He used to work as a shipping clerk but he stole basketballs from his boss. He once spent three months in jail because he stole a suit. He failed Math so he did not graduate from high school. Now Biff works in cattle ranches and farms. At his age of 34 he should already have a wife and family and a steady job yet he just wanders from one place to another looking for jobs.
