The school year is ending abruptly for Miranda and her friends in chapter five. I'm sure some of you are tempted to root for a meteor to hit the moon in real life so you do not have Regents Exams this June! However, this is just one more example of how Miranda and the rest of humanity have had their lives turned upside down.A lot of issues arose this chapter. Questions of rationing, religion, depression and striking a balance between helping others and looking out for yourself.
- Why does it bother Miranda so much that Megan gives away half her sandwich during lunch (p. 65)?
- How does Miranda feel about Megan's new found religious beliefs (p. 68-69)? Based on the first five chapters, why do you think Megan has become so religious? Do you think its affecting her ability to make good decisions concerning her self and her relationship with others?
- Electricity is something we more or less take for granted. As we see today in places like Iraq [as a result of the war], inconsistent electric service can have a substantial impact on people's lives. What if the Rochester area was faced with limited to no electric service for several months? How would you cope?
Please provide FREDs (facts, reasons, examples and details) to support your response!
1 Miranda doesn't want Megan to starve.
ReplyDelete2 Miranda thinks Megan is going crazy because God would want her to eat.
3 The majority of people would use batteries and candles as i would.
1- It bothers her because Megan is not eating enough
ReplyDelete2- I think that megan is more religious because of the Moon
3- If Rochester was without power I would cope by reading or playing with some one
1. Because Mirry thinks Megan is the female version of Skeletor.
ReplyDelete2. I think that Megan is more religious because somehow she twisted the fact that life is too short.
3. I would cuddle up in a ball and speak like Kurt Cobain, with hair like Milli Vanilli.
