They are the author's memories and impressions with the man he based Life of Pi off of. If you read the introduction(which is all in italics) he talks about how he came to write the book, and one thing the author mentions is the first meeting of real-life Piscine. So while the story is going on, the author adds in his thoughts on the main character.

Answer:
B. Linear Model
Explanation:
A. Interactive Model - is not the correct answer. The interactive model of communication is taking into consideration the exchange of thought between the sender and receiver, where communication goes both ways. This model focuses mostly on the process of communication itself.
<u>B. Linear model – is the right answer. </u>The linear model of communication is the “one-way” communication, meaning it is only the sender who transmits the message, while the receiver doesn’t send back the feedback or reply. <u>The message is the key to this model, and therefore this kind of communication focuses on the message that is sent to the recipient. </u>
C. Transactional model – is the wrong answer. The transactional model focuses on the communication that goes back and forth between the sender and the receiver, and messages can go simultaneously from both ways. This is n why the focus in this model is how the message was transmitted (as the name suggests) and how it was received).
D. A combination of A and B – this is not the right answer, as we have already proved that A is not a suitable answer to this question.
