Read the excerpt from Blanca Flor.
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

Words that indicate speech, such as “asked” and “said”.

Explanation:

The story of Blanca Flor revolves around the two protagonists Juanito and Blaca Flor who escaped the magic domain of Don Ricardo. Blanca Flor helped Juanito escape the evil man with the assistance of her own magical abilities.

The two given versions of the same scene show Don Ricardo being given the freshly baked loaf of bread by Juanito. The first is the play version while the second part is the narrative adaptation. And while there is not much difference between the two versions, there is one such point where their difference can be detected. It is the use of words such as "asked" and "said" that indicates speech in the two characters, which is not present in the play/ drama version.  

Thus, the correct answer is the last/ fourth option.

maksim [4K]

Answer:

Manuel returns home to find that his mother has suffered a stroke.

Explanation:

The short story "Manuel and the Magic Dox" by Ekaterina Sedia tells the fairytale of a young boy named Manuel and his friendship with a red fox. The story deals with legends and keeping alive one's beliefs, the traditions. The story also deals with the displacement of the natives and the influence of the European way of living.

In the story, Manuel encountered a fox on his way back home, by following a trail left by the fox prints. He gave the small red fox his snacks that Uncle Tobi had prepared for him. Once he got back home, he found that his mother had suffered a stroke and that he needed to now take care of her and not go to school.

So, the second thing that happened in the story is that Manuel returned home to find his mother has suffered a stroke.
