I can help you understand the question and guide you on how to answer it.

In this question, you are asked to analyze how the writer intensifies the contrast between two friends in the story, who initially shared similarities but now have different perspectives, in order to highlight that each person is now on their own.

To answer this question, you need to identify specific techniques or literary devices used by the writer to emphasize the contrasting viewpoints. Here is a step-by-step approach to help you answer the question:

1. Read the story and identify the two friends: Pay close attention to the parts of the story that introduce the two friends and their initial similarities. Take note of any important details about their friendship.

2. Analyze the changing perspectives: Examine how the writer presents the evolving viewpoints of the two friends. Look for moments or events in the story where their opinions or attitudes start to diverge. Consider the reasons behind their changing perspectives and any conflicts that arise.

3. Identify literary techniques: Look for any literary techniques used by the writer to intensify the contrast between the two friends. Some possible techniques to consider include:

- Dialogue: Pay attention to the conversations between the friends. Are there any distinct differences in their language, arguments, or beliefs?

- Actions and choices: Note any actions or choices made by the characters that showcase their contrasting viewpoints or values.

- Imagery and symbolism: Look for descriptive language, imagery, or symbols that highlight the different perspectives of the characters. This could involve the use of contrasting symbols, colors, or metaphors.

- Narrative structure: Observe how the story is structured and how it emphasizes the contrast. The writer may use alternating points of view, separate chapters for each character, or other structural choices to underscore their individuality.

4. Provide specific examples: Once you have identified the literary techniques or devices used by the writer, provide specific examples from the story to support your analysis. Quote relevant lines or describe particular scenes that demonstrate the intensifying contrast between the two friends.

By following these steps, you should be able to understand the question and provide a well-supported answer that explains how the writer intensifies the contrast between the two friends in the story.
