Answer 2

His father was a cultured, rather unsentimental man. There was never any display of emotion, even at his home. He was more concerned about others, than his own family. He also ran a store in signet

Answer 3

This is the paragraph/s:

For a ration of bread i was able to exchange cots to be next to my father. When the doctor arrived in the afternoon, i went to tell him that my father was very ill.

"Bring him here!"

I explained that he could not stand up, but the doctor would not listen. And so, with great difficulty, i brought my father to him. He stared at him, then asked curtly:

"What do you want?"

"My father is sick," I answered in his place... "Dysentery..."

"That's not my business. I'm a surgeon. Go on. Make room for the others!"

My protests were in vain.
