Answer: There was no much emphasis or mention about the cast's cultural background. Certain aspects are based on assumptions. I feel that the historical background is seen most important, to understand the cast's behavior.
Explanation:
Russian author Varlam Shalamov wrote a short story on Condensed Milk. Shalamov spent 15 years of life in Gulag, a camp where Russian forced-labor was being operated. This story narrates his terrifying experiences.
He was a political person, which shows that he was not a regular criminal but has been arrested as a thief. The treatment given to a thief was better than what he has been through. He was arrested based on suspicion as the Stalin Government found him as a threat though he was considered an enemy amongst the people. This is because of expressing his opinion that the Soviet Regime considered/felt inappropriate. Shalamov demonstrated his brilliance despite his deteriorating health at the camp. He was offered help to escape but wasn't fooled either. He lived amongst people whom he couldn't trust anymore.
While going through a harrowing treatment at the camp, the combatant realized that Shestakov was setting a trap. Shestakov was the only person with an office job with privileges. During those times, being with privileges was considered being good with the government and its people. Shalamov was afraid of Shestakov, as they were the only ones working in the field where Shestakov is trained. Shalamov was incredulous as to who had assigned Sestakov for the training and what he might have been offered?. Everything in the camp had to be paid with either another man's blood or his life.

<span>Q1: The ability of an ecosystem to recover from damage.
In the text, it says "the resiliency of the reefs". From this we know that resiliency is a trait that the reefs have. In the next sentence, we see the context clues that define resiliency when it states "reefs bounce back-even flourish." When someone or something bounces back it recovers and returns to it's previous state.
Q2: to inform readers about how the coral reefs are being destroyed AND to convince readers that practices that destroy coral reefs must be stopped.
It is a "Check All That Apply" so more than one answer can be chosen. The passage title is "Save the Coral Reefs" and the selection ends with the sentence "More can be done now to help the coral reefs bounce back". These clues tell the reader that the author's purpose is to save the reefs. In order to do this the author needs to first explain how the reefs are being destroyed. Then convince readers to save the reefs by stopping the practices that destroy them.
Q3: "could help save" and "unsubstantiated risks".
It is important to pay attention to the question here. It is asking for phrases that support safety - not necessarily nutrition. A pixie stick is safe to eat, but not nutritious. The phrase "could help save" supports the idea that it is safe because it is being defined as possibly life and eye-saving. "Unsubstantiated risks" also shows safety because it state that any risks have not been proven and are therefore unfounded. Some of the other phrases such as "more vitamin A" and "more nutritious" support the argument that the food is healthier but are not used to specifically explain how safe it is.</span>
