Question
13 \forty - three,\ bill supplies.
13 toby runs a hand through what’s left of his hair and gives pamela a meaningful look.
ote that second guitars enter a bar later.\
14 she actually smiles, that strained face pleased to be recognized.
13 the choir chugs on, tight with concentration while toby keeps the beat and cues entrances. tom, who rarely gets the rhythm right, is lagging on
orwegian wood\ while the others trot into \the long and winding road.\ toby sings his part, coaxing him back into the fold. for a few lines everything goes smoothly. it is one of those moments where effort turns to music, and they feel it, hardly dare to hope it will continue.
16 it is matthew, the lawyer, who breaks the spell.
17 \someone’s out of step!\ he protests, and the group staggers to a halt again.
18 \don’t quit!\ toby pleads. he continues to wave his baton, but it’s no use. they sit in silence, a dozen grizzled faces staring at him, waiting for guidance.
19 \quitting might be an advisable position,\ matthew says, leaning back in his chair and cradling his instrument.
\what’s that supposed to mean?\ pamela asks.
20 matthew doesn’t answer right away. instead he tilts his head and looks into the distance before answering, \the beatles. is this what we
25 what do the details provided in paragraph 13 reveal about toby?
ⓐ he focuses on and cares most about his parts of the music.
ⓑ he is a capable leader able to help his group make adjustments.
ⓒ he remains unsatisfied with the group’s performance during their practice.
ⓓ he enjoys directing popular music more than he enjoys arranging classical music.
To solve this, we analyze paragraph 13: Toby keeps the choir on track (concentration), coaxes them back into the moment when effort turns to music, and guides the performance smoothly. Option (a) focuses on his parts, but the text shows he’s leading the group. Option (c) – no sign of dissatisfaction. Option (d) – no comparison of music types. Option (b) fits: he’s a capable leader adjusting the group’s performance (e.g., guiding them, ensuring smooth transitions).
