Read the excerpt from Hard Times, by Charles Dickens and answer the question.
Louisa awoke from a torpor, and her eyes languidly opened on her old bet at home,
and her old room. It seemed, at first as if all that had happened simnce the days when
these objects were familiar to her were the shadows of a dream; but gradually, as the
objects became more real to her sight, the events became more real to her mind.
The word "languidly" in this passage most nearly means
excitedly
anticipatorily
lacking energy
quickly

“asleep in his bed” is personified.

hmm, sadly there is no dialogue. there is no place in the story where he is talking to anyone. it's more of just describing what he eats and where he sleeps. you have to become anne frank, give details of where you are, what other folks look like, how the environment is. have a little bit of dialogue tell of what people are specifically saying. anne frank talked about her entire household including the people, the objects, the lighting, the food they ate, and even the smell in the air. there has to be more to your diary entries, the whole story in its current state is only about peter van daan, the food, the sounds, and where he sleeps. also he seems to be writing only once a year yet more than that happened from day to day. for a friend, i can you write it out, if you want.

churchill's serious tone makes it seem as though he is giving bad news rather than rallying support.

they are both made up so they are fake.
