Answer 1

Answer:

Philip Wakem is a shock to Tom's sense of consistency. Although he cannot see that Philip's deformity is accidental and not inherited, Tom is forced to recognize Philip's superiority in other ways; and the fact that Philip loves his father gives at least a small shock to Tom's cherished prejudices.

Nevertheless, Tom has no desire to be like Philip in any way. He retains his disgust with deformity, and the things he is proudest of — his courage and athletic ability — are sufficiently different from Philip's tastes that they can never become friends. With his intelligence and sensitivity Philip is a good deal like Maggie.
