Why could not he? No, General Miles did not recognize the author. He could not recognize him because the author was a poor young writer whom nobody knew and whose books nobody read at the time they could have potentially met in Washington. 3) Prove that the author’s childhood was very hard. The text does not provide explicit information about the author's childhood. However, it does mention that the author was a poor young writer who often did not have money for even basic necessities like bread. This suggests that the author had a difficult and challenging upbringing. 4) Why did the boy find himself in the hotel one day? The text does not explicitly mention why the boy found himself in the hotel. It only states that he went into the hall of the hotel to have a rest after walking along the streets of Washington. 5) Who ran into the hall suddenly? It was a funny little dog, wasn't it? Yes, a funny little dog ran into the hall suddenly. 6) Why did the boy sell the dog to General Miles for three dollars? The boy sold the dog to General Miles for three dollars because he and his friend were in need of three dollars and the opportunity arose when General Miles showed interest in buying the dog. The boy saw it as a way to obtain the needed money quickly. 7) What happened ten minutes later? Ten minutes later, an old man came into the hall looking for his dog. 8) What brilliant idea came to the boy's mind? The text does not mention a specific brilliant idea that came to the boy's mind. 9) How did he manage to take the dog back? The boy approached General Miles and insisted on taking the dog back, stating that he would return the three dollars he received. Despite General Miles arguing that he had purchased the dog, the boy's persistence led to the dog being returned to its original owner. 10) Did the boy's behavior prove his words, "Never ask for money you haven't earned"? Yes, the boy's behavior can be seen as proving his words "Never ask for money you haven't earned." He sold the dog to General Miles for three dollars but later returned the money and the dog when he realized it was not his dog to sell. This demonstrates his honesty and refusal to take money for something he did not rightfully own.

Assignment # Five– Задание № 5 Перескажите сцену в комнате Дженерала Майлза, используя Косвенную речь (Indirect Speech). He recounted that a few days ago, he had met General Miles at his friend's house. The General had asked him if he had lived in Washington in 1867. He replied affirmatively, saying that he had. Then the General had inquired how it could have happened that they hadn't met back then. He explained that they couldn't have met because the General was already a renowned general at the time, while he himself was a young writer whom nobody knew and whose books nobody read. He thought to himself that the General didn't remember him, but they had crossed paths once in Washington during that time. |
