Twins’ LuckMateo’s apartment was on the second floor of the building, over the bakery. The house always smelled of sugar and van

illa, even though his mother cooked spicy foods at home, like asopao and mofongo.Mateo was ten and had a twin brother named Marcos. They did not look much alike. Marcos was short, with wide hands and thin hair, like an old man. He couldn’t speak and could walk only by dragging his left foot behind him. He never got far. When they went out, he used a wheelchair.At times, while he was getting ready for school and while his father and mother were getting Marcos ready for the day, Mateo wondered what it would be like to be Marcos. They would bathe him and dress him. They would put him in a soft chair in front of the television. Then his father would leave for work and his mother would feed him a soft- boiled egg or a bowl of corn mush. She would put a bell at his side in case he needed anything. All his needs would be taken care of by someone else.Mateo wondered how the two of them, who started out together, had wound up so different. Was it luck? Why wasn’t life fair? When he was younger, he thought that Marcos was the lucky one, getting so much attention when he had to do things for himself. Mateo’s parents never seemed to have time for him. Mateo never got to stay home and watch cartoons all day. Then one day, it hit him. The idea surprised him because he couldn’t see how he hadn’t realized it before. Marcos wasn’t as lucky as Mateo thought.

Now look at the two lines that follow the ones you examined in part A. Do they support the speaker’s original assessment of the
dusya [7]

Answer:

In the next two lines, that seems to refer to the statement above about the second path being grassier and less worn. Now the speaker suggests that the second path was equally, not less, worn: “the passing there / Had worn them about the same.” This seems to say that the two paths had had a similar number of people walking on them, so they were fairly equally worn.

Minchanka [31]
