Answer:
1.Tom carried the parcel of sugar candy with the Small Dutch doll for little Laura in his pocket. This works as a ray of pleasure in the general gloom. However, he loved the fact of how Laura will eat the candy and the pleasure she will have by having small bits of the candy had him happy.
2.Mr sterling leave tom and Philip alone after introducing because he believed that young boys shyed to make friends in front of elders.
3.Tom felt in an uncomfortable flutter as he took off his woollen comforter and other wrappings. He had seen Philip Wakem at St Ogg’s, but had always turned his eyes away from him as quickly as possible. He would have disliked having a deformed boy for his companion, even if Philip had not been the son of a bad man. And Tom did not see how a bad man’s son could be very good. His own father was a good man, and he would readily have fought any one who said the contrary. He was in a state of mingled embarrassment and defiance as he followed Mr Stelling to the study.
4.Jacob left him with Philip in the study he did not talk to him for a while. He thought that maybe Philip was also like his father who was not a good person, or maybe he was spiteful and would do some mischief slyly. ... So he walked across to him and looked at his paper.
5.Philip was very fond of Latin lesson
6.Tom was stun to Philip's feeling of consistency. In spite of the fact that he can't see that Philip distortion was neither planned nor inherited. Tom is compelled towards Philip's predominance in many ways and the fact that Philip love his father was not less than a stun for Tom's biases.
