Answer:

c. too much pride can bring a downfall

Explanation:

Both of these characters were showing pride in one way or another. Don was being overly proud of being smart that people started doubting if he was actually smart- this would be his "downfall"

Tom was confident that his team would win, but they didn't. He was so full of anticipated pride while he daydreamed about holding the trophy that he missed what would have been a winning pass which would be his "downfall"

In summary, both of these characters' downfall was their pride, even if the downfall wasn't something grand or serious, or even if it hadn't happened all the way yet.

Read the following excerpt from Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. Then write a brief
paragraph summarizing your observations and analysis of the setting it describes.
Harry had never even imagined such a strange and splendid place. It was lit by
thousands and thousands of candles that were floating in midair over four long tables
where the rest of the students were sitting. These tables were laid with glittering golden
plates and goblets. At the top of the hall was another long table where the teachers
were sitting. Professor McGonagall led the first years up here, so that they came to a

of faces staring at them looked like pale lanterns in the flickering candlelight. Dotted
here and there among the students the ghosts shone misty silver. Mainly to avoid all the
staring eyes, Harry looked upward and saw a velvety black ceiling dotted with stars. He
heard Hermione whisper, "It's bewitched to look like the sky outside. I read about it in
Hogwarts: A History,
It was hard to believe there was a ceiling there at all, and that the Great Hall didnt
simply open on to the heavens
