Hello! I would like to ask certain questions regarding several topics that I may have difficulty in. It would be a great honor for you to support me and help me with them. Thanks for everything you have done for the past few years I really appreciate it

These are the four skills your teacher is clearly working on.

The first question seems to be a simple factual question - extraction of information from the source.

The second is asking you to explain something in the source - there should be enough infirmation in the source to do so - the key is context, you need to show how, given what the source is telling you, this is how it works/happened...

The third is extraction of thoughts and feeling. Can you remember how i did the last one - first look through for 'feelings' words (amazed,angry etc.), Then see if you can infer some feelings from the way the author is writing (clue: look at the adjectives)

The fourth is about literary techniques (alliteration, metaphors, lists of three etc.).You know there because they are the same ones you try to get into your free writing. See if you can spot any in the given text, and then try to say what the effect is on the reader
