Explanation:

For question 9, we analyze the character - traits to assign them to the correct columns. For question 10, we consider how the setting and character reactions create humor in the fantasy story. For question 11, we need to summarize the key events and themes of "Chivalry" in a logical order.
For question 9:

• "Acts with polite determination" could apply to either character, so it goes in "Both Characters".
• "Speaks and dresses in an antiquated way" is more characteristic of Galaad, a knight from legend, so it goes in "Galaad".
• "Does kind things for others" can be said of both characters, so it goes in "Both Characters".
• "Reacts in an understated manner" is more in line with Mrs. Whitaker's demeanor, so it goes in "Mrs. Whitaker".

For question 10:

• Mrs. Whitaker's refusal to acknowledge the extraordinary creates humor, and no one in the setting finding Galaad and his horse remarkable also creates a humorous contrast between the fantasy and the ordinary.

For question 11, a summary would include the main characters (Mrs. Whitaker and Galaad), the basic premise (Galaad, a knight from legend, visits Mrs. Whitaker in a modern - day setting), and key events (such as exchanges of items and their interactions).

Answer:

9.
A. Both Characters
B. Galaad
C. Both Characters
D. Mrs. Whitaker
10.
B. Mrs. Whitaker never acknowledges that there is anything extraordinary happening.
D. No one in the setting finds Galaad and his horse to be remarkable.

1. "Chivalry" by Gaiman features Mrs. Whitaker, an ordinary modern - day woman, who is visited by Galaad, a knight from legend. Galaad brings her treasures from various legends. Despite the fantastical nature of his appearance and gifts, Mrs. Whitaker remains composed and non - plussed. Their interactions, with Galaad's chivalrous behavior contrasting with the ordinary modern setting, form the core of the story.
