Question

Reread lines 31–54. Summarize what you think about the narrator and her relationship with Carlé. What can you infer about their emotional connection? Support your answer with textual evidence

Answer 1

Answer:

The narrator and her lover, Rolf Carlé, had a very strong bond between them.

Explanation:

The narrator and her lover, Rolf Carlé, had a very strong bond between them. Carlé, most of time, had to leave early in the morning for work and would return home very late or only the next day.

However, it did not hamper their relationship and the narrator seemed very impressed about Carlé's profession and dedication in his work.

They had a strong emotional connection. This can be inferred through the narrator's way of expressing about her lover's work. She proudly explains about his work and how Carlé was a familiar figure in newscasts through lines such as "For years  he had been a familiar figure in newscasts," and "Rolf Carlé had the advantage of the television helicopter, which flew him over the avalanche."
