Four essay questions... god this is a nightmare
question 9 essay only~
The humor of the story was when Andrew made the joke about his team being nemesis with Emoryville team. However when Patrick made the disagreement "I don't like Emoryville" was when the suspense started. He might have been saying it in a tone of disgust due to any past situations that might have happened. When the real suspense that left the reader in question was when Andrew continued to ask Patrick where he was from. The story goes on to say he had quickly changed the subject so not only is it suspenseful but Andrew might not even know who Patrick really is.
yall better hope that wasnt a april fools prank

6. Story 1: “Toothless, Clawless Wonder Cat”
Milo, at age 20, had known better days. A former owner had had him declawed in his youth, after Milo destroyed a VERY expensive couch. By 1990, he’d lost his teeth to old age, and his fur had lost its sheen and was, truth be told, even falling out in places.
Yes, Milo had known better days, but he was still feisty. He often sat in the grass at the end of his family’s pathway, where the sun struck and warmed him in the late afternoon. He was part guard, part sunbather. As guard, he felt compelled to try to keep dogs, whatever their size, from violating his family’s property in ways that dogs do.
His human family found all Milo’s ways extremely charming. They laughed when he arched his back and growled at the neighborhood dogs. Mrs. Archer’s tiny chihuahua had barked her high-pitched angry yaps at Milo this morning, and Mrs. Archer petted the ancient cat by way of consolation. Mr. Lancaster’s gigantic Great Dane had totally ignored Milo just yesterday, which annoyed the old cat.
In short, Milo’s human family was not alone in thinking he was adorable; indeed, most neighbors loved Milo, who was known far and wide as the “toothless, clawless wonder cat.”
Story 2: “Otis Meets Milo”
Jenny Edison was walking her dog, Otis, a huge, overweight German Shephard. She was enjoying the weather—it was a spring day with a light breeze. She didn’t notice the American Shorthair cat with its brown, white, and orange fur that camouflaged it in the tall, unmowed grass. The cat made himself known when Otis dared to cross the sidewalk near his family’s pathway.
The American Shorthair cat hissed and growled ferociously. Otis yelped and sprang back, hiding behind Jenny’s legs.
“Why you terrible, misbehaving cat,” Jenny exclaimed. “Nobody does that to my Otis!”
Jenny craned her neck to see if the cat’s owners were nearby, but they were nowhere to be seen. This cat is a danger to the neighborhood, she thought to herself. I should go knock on their door.
