Which lines in this excerpt from leo tolstoy’s the death of ivan ilyich reflects the author’s opinion that the members of the medical profession don’t really care about their patients? peter went to the door, but ivan ilyich dreaded being left alone. "how can i keep him here? oh yes, my medicine." "peter, give me my medicine." "why not? perhaps it may still do some good." he took a spoonful and swallowed it. "no, it won't . it's all tomfoolery, all deception," he decided as soon as he became aware of the familiar, sickly, hopeless taste. "no, i can't believe in it any longer. but the pain, why this pain? if it would only cease just for a moment! " and he moaned. peter turned towards him. "it's all right. go and fetch me some tea."

…her attitude towards him and his diseases is still the same. just as the doctor had adopted a certain relation to his patient which he could not abandon, so had she formed one towards him—that he was not doing something he ought to do and was himself to blame, and that she reproached him lovingly for this—and she could not now change that attitude.

"you see he doesn't listen to me and doesn't take his medicine at the proper time. and above all he lies in a position that is no doubt bad for him—with his legs up."

she described how he made gerasim hold his legs up.

the doctor smiled with a contemptuous affability that said: "what's to be done? these sick people do have foolish fancies of that kind, but we must forgive them."

Which two passages in this excerpt from the death of ivan illych does leo tolstoy use to suggest that ivan ilych feels like his life is slipping away from him? "what's the use? it makes no difference," he said to himself, staring with wide-open eyes into the darkness. "death. yes, death. and none of them knows or wishes to know it, and they have no pity for me. now they are playing." (he heard through the door the distant sound of a song and its accompaniment.) "it's all the same to them, but they will die too! fools! i first, and they later, but it will be the same for them. and now they are merry . . the beasts! " anger choked him and he was agonizingly, unbearably miserable. "it is impossible that all men have been doomed to suffer this awful horror! " he raised himself. "something must be wrong. i must calm myself—must think it all over from the beginning." and he again began thinking. "yes, the beginning of my illness: i knocked my side, but i was still quite well that day and the next. it hurt a little, then rather more. i saw the doctors, then followed despondency and anguish, more doctors, and i drew nearer to the abyss. my strength grew less and i kept coming nearer and nearer, and now i have wasted away and there is no light in my eyes.
