Answer:

<u>Lines 1 - 18 </u>

1. The characters are: a boy called Norman Munshin and his mother.

2. They are in their house, in the kitchen.

3. Before coming home, Norman was on football practice.

4. Norman is frustrated and upset because his coach decided to introduce a new quarterback into the team, who will replace Norman on the field.

5. His mother tries to be supportive and to comfort her son because his coach said he is to fat and to lazy for football and that he doesn't have an aptitude for the game.

6. His parents are excited about his sporting activity.

7. He's eating a pork sandwich.

<u>Lines 18-31 </u>

1.  He is really sad, he is sobbing because of the decision that his coach took.

2. The coach decided to replace Norman with Jeffrey Tillstorm because he wasn't motivated enough, and as a result, his performance wasn't good enough to continue playing as a quarterback of the team.

3. She tries to comfort Norman, by saying to him that his coach didn't actually mean that. Besides that, she tries to be supportive, to make him understand the point that his coach was trying to make and to convince him that his coach wasn't thinking all the things he said.

4.  Norman is not convinced because he says: Mr. Hemsley doesn't think anything of the kind.

5. His mother says to him that Mr. Hemsley is only a coach, so his job is to think about the entire team, not about an individual.  She also says that isn't the real purpose of sports. She says this to Norman because she wants to make him see the bigger picture and to learn some important life lessons.

<u>Lines 31 - 54 </u>

1. She tries to teach him that the real purpose of the sport is to make us appreciate when someone else excels, to teach us to work harmoniously with others, and to learn the essence of the fair-play and sportsmanship.  

2. - She tries to explain him the real purpose of sports; - She mentions Norman's father and says he would be ashamed if he heard Norman speaking as he did; - She asks Norman to promise her that he will stop being selfish and unsportsmanlike and that he will think on his team; - She wants Norman to call Jeffery and wish him good luck as a new quarterback.

3. The most effective is the second one (where she mentions his father) and the third one (where she asks him to stop being selfish).

4. She expects from Norman to: say his sorry about what he said about Jeffrey, to say he didn't mean it, stop being selfish and unsportsmanlike, to think on his team first, and to call Jeffery and wish him good luck.

5. He taught him not to be jealous and selfish, to act like sportsmanlike, to be kind, and to respect other people.

6. Because seems that Norman respects his father and he is Norman's role model, so he doesn't want to disappoint him.

Lines 55- end

1. Norman has learned the lesson because he accepted to call Jeffrey and wish him good luck.

2. She wants Norman to invite Jeffrey to share his meal, in order to teach him how to be polite, how to respect other people and their success and to teach him not to be jealous.

3. She took the pork out of the garbage in order to prepare a sandwich for Jeffrey. She does that because the pork is tainted. She plans to poison Jeffrey so that Norman could play on the game.

4. Mrs. Munshin's is hypocritical  and contradictory person, because she is trying to teach his son to be fair, unselfish and polite, but, on the other hand, she does a completely different thing, by trying to prejudicate to Jeffrey, because she wants to see her son playing on the game.

Which statement best describes how the structure of these excerpts helps to develop the themes? The refrains of "An Irish Airman
marishachu [46]
In my opinion, the correct answer is D: <span>Both the parallel structure in the excerpt of "An Irish Airman Foresees His Own Death" and the repetition in the excerpt from "Do not go gentle into that good night" emphasize the inevitability of death.

The main point of both poems is that death is inevitable. However, in Yates' poem, the airman willingly faces death, because of an inner impulse that he finds hard to describe. In this excerpt, he tells us that he is more or less indifferent toward those who are below, on Earth. He is interested in death itself, as a dark phenomenon that haunts him. On the other hand, in Thomas' poem, the inevitability of death is human tragic destiny. We should cling to life as best we can precisely because death is inevitable. These two poems have the same topic, but opposite directions of thought: Yates' speaker goes to meet death, embracing it, whereas Thomas' speaker encourages his dying father to try and postpone death, if possible.</span>

Answer:

Decide on a balanced timeframe for each treatment and note which is more effective.

Explanation:

To avoid stress and overloading the patient's body, the best option is to have the doctors talk and determine a balanced period of time for the patient to be subjected to both treatments, not all at once, but following a logical order and benefits. After this period, doctors must evaluate which treatment was most effective and continue using the winning treatment, until the patient is cured.
