Answer:The correct answer to question 1 is C. "His friends were those of his own blood or those whom he had known the longest;"
Obviously, in order to trust someone, there must be a special bond that unites them together for a long time.
The correct answer for question 2 is C. "undemonstrative at the best"

The correct answer to question 3 is B. They do not understand why the men are friends.
People did not comprehend the bond they had as friends and they were astonished by their friendship.
Explanation:
I believe the correct answer is: “Dipping his fingers languidly into the cool pond, he delicately plucked out an oval-shaped purple leaf…”
The setting of the narrative represents the place where narrative is being unfolded – its surroundings, position. This quotation is the best contribution to the setting as it describes the place where the story begins or where story happens (at the edge of the wide, sloping lawn, the tall, green fronds of bamboo waved, as mild as grazing sheep, and the politely clicking melody of wooden wind chimes wafted from the weathered pine balcony of his twelve-bedroom cottage).
Therefore, the excerpt from the text best establishes the setting of this passage is:
"Dipping his fingers languidly into the cool pond, he delicately plucked out an oval-shaped purple leaf with fine-toothed edges, then let it drop so he could capture a newer one, a larger, brilliantly red leaf whose crinkled surface curled like the palm of a hand. Behind him, at the edge of the wide, sloping lawn, the tall, green fronds of bamboo waved, as mild as grazing sheep, and the politely clicking melody of wooden wind chimes wafted from the weathered pine balcony of his twelve-bedroom cottage."

Swan of blood = A Raven

Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
Good luck.</span>
