Sam Wood is the protagonist in the story because the story starts off with him driving around Wells, and he was the one who discovered Mr. Mantoli's body. On page two, it says, "He slipped the car into gear and moved it away from the curb with the professional smoothness of an expert driver." This quote shows how Sam is an expert driver. Another quote on page thirty nine, "Sam reached up and removed his uniform cap ashamed that he had forgotten to do so until now. I'm terribly sorry to have to bring you this news." This quote describes how Sam is a sensitive person internally. In addition, Sam Wood hates to be called Sam and rather be called Mr. Wood. Sam has been a police officer for three years, (pg.2) and is a night patrol cop. He wears a police uniform that has the number 38 on it. (pg.7) Sam in a cautious person because when driving, he concentrates on missing holes in the road! (pg.3) Sam has powerful feelings for Duena. On page 57, it says, "He wanted desperately to offer her his protection, to let her cry on his ample shoulder if she wanted to, to hold her hand in a reassuring grip." Sam also starts to develop a relationship with Virgil because he knows he is helping them solve the murder case, so he decides to offer him food. Sam's conflict internally is about racism. He was extremely racist to blacks at first. For example, he called them "animals" on page five. Also, he arrested the Negro without questioning in the railroad station, assuming that he was the one of murdered Mr. Mantoli on page 15. Later on in the book, he overcomes his conflict and realizes that black people are normal people because he has been working with Virgil (a Negro) during the whole investigation. Moreover, he shook hands with Virgil. Sam's conflict externally is to find the person who killed Mr. Mantoli because he has strong feelings for Duena and wants to help her find the murderer of her father. Sam is round because he is strict and follows orders, but he has…

During my questionnaire I asked questions that would provide me with good information from the answers. I asked people face to face to increase the validity of responses I received. Validity would be increased as people are less likely to give you a false answer if you are asking them face to face. I asked a range of questions in my questionnaire like which geographical area do you live in and the income they receive. After a certain amount of understanding was obtained from the answered question I could then go on to ask question relating to the product. These questions were based on how they currently see the company. Also it was asking how often they purchase the certain type of product on a weekly basis. I knew then if they purchase a high number of a similar product then the response I would get from my questionnaire for my new product would be a good opinion. This would be because they know what flavours work well, and which don’t so a majority response to either a yes or no answer will indicate whether they feel my new product will be a successful one. In my questionnaire I asked 25 people, the people I asked were a wide range of people as Walkers has a wide target market. I targeted a big range of people as all sorts of people purchase Walkers crisps. The people I asked varied in gender and age. There were some that were aged fourteen and under and there was one who as sixty six years or over. There was a range of people in fulltime jobs and people who were not. Of the people that were in jobs there was a range of occupations that they were in, these included an electrician, a hairdresser and a pub landlord. Some of the people that I asked were not in a fulltime jobs, this was either due to unemployment through redundancy in an old job or there was one person who was a full time mother. I knew the results provided from a full time mother would be reliable as it is more than likely she would do the full…
