The doctor says "But my mind was very active." Give two examples to show that his mind was really active?
Dear student,
The doctor's mind was very active even though he was stunned to see a snake coiled over his arm. The first thing that expresses this is his presence of mind to remain still so that the snake would not strike, The second instance that shows his mind was active was how he weighed his options of saving himself if the snake bit him: he remembered there were no medicines in his room as he was but a poor doctor.
Regards
