Answer: From the outset we know that this is a child speaking to the father about the smell of alcohol (whiskey, your breath). If life is a dance then this child is having a tough time because the dance was not easy - note the lack of a contraction which makes the line more formal.

Romped implies a sense of fun but lacking control because things fall from the shelf as a result of the dance and mother isn't well pleased. The use of the word countenance and unfrown is unusual. The former refers to the mother's facial expression, the latter isn't a proper word.

The words battered and scraped, beat and hard suggest the father's rough handling of the boy but these are neutralised almost by the use of waltzed, which implies some sort of carefree innocence.

Don't know if this helps, but hopefully you gained something from this!

Critically evaluate four dangers of engaging in social media relationship
mel-nik [20]
1. This can lead to spending too much time in the cyber world, and not enough time in the "real" world. This can lead to decreased productivity (for example, not completing homework, or even remembering to eat, in extreme cases).

2. When engaging in a social media relationship, "catfishing" (when someone has a fake profile and pretends to be someone else) is a common occurrence.

3. Something more extreme than catfishing can also occur, often with younger adolescents. While it can be categorized as catfishing, the person behind the profile could be a predator and have plans to abduct the other person.

4. "Real world" relationships may suffer. Social media relationships require a lot of time on the computer/phone, which may take away time from hanging out with friends and family (similar to the first point).
