Answer:

1a. Lines 30-36 show that the man never thought deeply of things. He did not reason beyond the surface of matters and that was why he never thought that the abnormal temperature could be indicative of danger.

1b. These lines are a foreshadowing of the danger or negative consequence the man will face as a result of his inability to use his instincts.

2. (I believe the word should be naturalistic). A naturalistic view of life sees all events in life as natural and not having any spiritual or metaphysical undertones. In lines 5-20, the man had a natural view of the weather condition as being just normal. Also, when the water from the man's mouth became ice, he believed that to be natural and not having any further meaning.

Explanation:

In further explaining how the man regarded 50 degrees below zero, to mean 80 degrees of frost, the author showed that the man did not think deeply about matters. For example, he never reasoned about man's weakness and how fragile he is from his inability to cope with high and very low limits of temperature.

These things never made him think about life and death. These are signs that he might pay dearly for his inability to use his senses.

For many, there's no escaping it. The daily commute to and from work is as unavoidable as day and night. But it could become a lot more interesting. The American Helicopter Association is offering a large cash prize for inventors and engineers to come up with new and experimental kinds of airborne transport. Who knows, perhaps one day his commute to work will take place not on a bicycle but on a bicycle-powered craft. Does your workplace have a landing pad on the roof or a runway nearby? The day when she does might just be closer than they think!

His: In this sentence, the expression has an unknown subject. It is incorrect to say his because the gender of the subject is unknown as this is meant for the general public. Instead, it should say either your.

Answer:

Accorthing to this text, the correct option is B: "Flailing and Screaming, Xavier disappeared(...)

In this sentence we find words like "flailing" and "screaming" that indicate that Xavier was afraid. This is written in an impicit way, because it doesn't say that he was afraid but rather that he was waving his hands and screaming; these actions suggest that he was asking for help, and that he was desperate and afraid, so the idea of fear is suggested but not explicitly said.
