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.

Hi leave reasons why you dislike studying but love learning down below!!!! Thanks
belka [17]

Studying relates to school and the negativity surrounding the topic. Most students do not enjoy going to school and since studying is mainly done for school it ends up having a negative correlation. It is also tiring because it is just repeating and memorizing information you already know. Learning on the other had you can do in and out of school. You can learn about things you enjoy and interest you which helps build a positive correlation with the topic. When you learn you are also taking in new information instead of repeating the same concepts over and over to memorize them.

Hope this helped! :))
