It ends with the word losers because they are all losers in the end even if somebody wins. What was lost was the desire to win because everybody swam and some people thought that they are the best are they just can't do it. So mainly, nobody had the wit to think that the could do more than just win.

Well just relax everything will be ok. I was nervous as a freshman as well and struggled but your teacher will always be there for you, just keep on studying and when school starts don’t be afraid to raise your hand or ask for help when needed because they won’t know if you’re struggling. Personally in my high school my teachers offered tutoring after school. Don’t stress and break ur head just enjoy ur break and wait until school starts cause i’m pretty sure not everyone is gonna remember anything as well. They take it little by little and it’s pretty easy.

Which personality trait does Dickon have the would make him at home at Buckingham palace or at the bottom of a coal mine?
Anarel [89]

The personality trait that would make Dickon feel at home at Buckingham Palace or at the bottom of a coal mine is that he is very likable.

It is mention trough the book that he has a strange ability to captivate everyone human or not since his ability also applies to animals, everywhere Dickon goes everyone just fell under his spell and find him lovable. We can see the quotation that says :

There really was a sort of Magic about Dickon, as Mary always privately believed. When Mr. Roach heard his name he smiled quite leniently.

“He’d be at home in Buckingham Palace or at the bottom of a coal mine,” he said. “And yet it’s not impudence, either. He’s just fine, is that lad.”
