1. Part A The correct answer is: Will be protected on his journey.
To get the answer, we need to carefully read the question and the options given. In the passage, Azaz gives Milo a box of letters of the alphabet for a specific reason, and we need to identify that reason from the options given. By process of elimination:
- Can eat them when he is hungry: This is not mentioned in the passage.
- Will win against the Mathemagician: This is not mentioned in the passage.
- Will learn to be a better reader: This is not mentioned in the passage.
- Will be protected on his journey: This is mentioned in the passage. Azaz gives Milo the letters of the alphabet so he can be protected on his journey.
Part B The correct answer is: “With them you can form all the words you will ever need to help you overcome the obstacles that may stand in your path.”
To find the supporting excerpt, we need to analyze each option and select the one that reinforces the reason we identified in Part A.
- “Things which are equally bad are also equally good. Try to look at the bright side of things.”: This excerpt does not support the reason identified in Part A.
- “It sounds dangerous to me.”: This excerpt does not support the reason identified in Part A.
- “With them you can form all the words you will ever need to help you overcome the obstacles that may stand in your path.”: This excerpt directly supports the reason identified in Part A. It explains how the letters of the alphabet can be used to form words and help overcome obstacles.
2. In order to answer this question, you need to refer to Act I of The Phantom Tollbooth and select one of the characters. Then, observe their dialogue and analyze what it reveals about their character. Without the complete text of Act I, I'm unable to provide specific examples. However, I can guide you on how to approach this question.
Choose a character from Act I, pay attention to their dialogue, and consider the following aspects:
1. Tone and language: How does the character speak? Do they use formal or informal language? Are they polite or rude? This can reveal their personality traits or their social background.
2. Attitude and emotions: What emotions or attitudes does the character express through their words? Are they optimistic, pessimistic, sarcastic, etc.? This can provide insights into their worldview or mindset.
3. Vocabulary and subject matter: What topics does the character emphasize or talk about? Are they interested in specific subjects? Do they use any jargon or specialized language? This may indicate their interests, knowledge, or expertise.
Once you have identified a character and specific examples from the drama, you can write a paragraph describing three things about the character that are revealed through their dialogue. Remember to support your ideas with evidence from the text.
