How does the writer describe Mr Knoppert’s enthusiasm in the extract? I need 4 points He had to go and look at the eggs every hour that he was home. He looked at them every morning to see if any change had taken place, and the eggs were his last thought every night before he went to bed. Moreover, another snail was now digging a pit. And another pair of snails was mating! The first batch of eggs now turned a greyish colour, and minuscule spirals of shells became discernible on one side of each egg. Mr Knoppert’s anticipation rose to a higher pitch. At last a morning arrived – the eighteenth after laying, according to Mr Knoppert’s careful count – when he looked down into the egg pit and saw the first tiny moving head, the first stubby little antennae uncertainly exploring the nest. Mr Knoppert was as happy as the father of a new child. Every one of the seventy or more eggs in the pit came miraculously to life. He had seen the entire reproductive cycle evolve to a successful conclusion. And the fact that no one, at least no one he knew of, was acquainted with a fraction of what he knew, lent his knowledge a thrill of discovery, the piquancy of the esoteric. Mr Knoppert made notes on successive matings and egg hatchings. He narrated small biology to fascinated, more often shocked, friends and guests, until his wife squirmed with embarrassment.
