Which line from the excerpt best supports the theme that "People can surprise the ones who love them"?
Read the excerpt from "Raymond's Run."
Then I hear Raymond yanking at the fence to call me
and I wave to shush him, but he keeps rattling the fence
like a gorilla in a cage like in them gorilla movies, but
then like a dancer or something he starts climbing up
nice and easy but very fast. And it occurs to me,
watching how smoothly he climbs hand over hand and
remembering how he looked running with his arms down
to his side and with the wind pulling his mouth back and
his teeth showing and all, it occurred to me that
Raymond would make a very fine runner. Doesn't he
always keep up with me on my trots? And he surely
knows how to breathe in counts
of seven 'cause he's
always doing it at the dinner table, which drives my
brother George up the wall. And I'm smiling to beat the
band 'cause if I've lost this race, or if me and Gretchen
tied, or even if I've won, I can always retire as a runner
and beain a whole new career as a coach with Raymond
it occurred to me that Raymond would make a very
fine runner.
Then I hear Raymond yanking at the fence to call me
and I wave to shush him.
he keeps rattling the fence like a gorilla in a cage
like in them gorilla movies.
After all, with a little more study I can beat Cynthia
and her phony self at the spelling bee.

Which sentence in this excerpt from leo tolstoy’s the death of ivan ilyich shows the human tendency to contemplate one’s past life? "but if that is so," he said to himself, "and i am leaving this life with the consciousness that i have lost all that was given me and it is impossible to rectify it—what then? " he lay on his back and began to pass his life in review in quite a new way. in the morning when he saw first his footman, then his wife, then his daughter, and then the doctor, their every word and movement confirmed to him the awful truth that had been revealed to him during the night. in them he saw himself—all that for which he had lived—and saw clearly that it was not real at all, but a terrible and huge deception which had hidden both life and death. this consciousness intensified his physical suffering tenfold. he groaned and tossed about, and pulled at his clothing which choked and stifled him. and he hated them on that account. he was given a large dose of opium and became unconscious, but at noon his sufferings began again. he drove everybody away and tossed from side to side. his wife came to him and said: "jean, my dear, do this for me. it can't do any harm and often . healthy people often do it." he opened his eyes wide. "what? take communion? why? it's unnecessary! " she began to cry. "yes, do, my dear. i'll send for our priest. he is such a nice man." "all right. very well," he muttered. when the priest came and heard his confession, ivan ilyich was softened and seemed to feel a relief from his doubts and consequently from his sufferings, and for a moment there came a ray of hope. he again began to think of the vermiform appendix and the possibility of correcting it. he received the sacrament with tears in his eyes.
