01:59:40 Which line from the excerpt best supports the theme
that "People can surprise the ones who love them"?
Read the excerpt from "Raymond's Run."
Then I hear Raymond yanking at the fence to call me
and I wave to shush him, but he keeps rattling the
fence like a gorilla in a cage like in them gorilla movies,
but then like a dancer or something he starts climbing
up nice and easy but very fast. And it occurs to me,
watching how smoothly he climbs hand over hand and
remembering how he looked running with his arms
down to his side and with the wind pulling his mouth
back and his teeth showing and all, it occurred to me
that Raymond would make a very fine runner. Doesn't
he always keep up with me on my trots? And he surely
knows how to breathe in counts of seven 'cause he's
always doing it at the dinner table, which drives my
brother George up the wall. And I'm smiling to beat the
band 'cause if I've lost this race, or if me and Gretchen
tied, or even if I've won, I can always retire as a runner
coach with
O ...it occurred to me that Raymond would make a
very fine runner
O Then I hear Raymond yanking at the fence to call
me and I wave to shush him.
O ...he keeps rattling the fence like a gorilla in a cage
like in them gorilla movies.
After all, with a little more study I can beat Cynthia
and her phony self at the spelling bee.
