How does Ellie feel after the lawn mower incident? She felt horrendous and guilty about herself because she doesn’t want to kill those people. She said that her life will not be normal again because of what casualty and damage she caused. She killed those people that probably do not want to be in that situation or does not want invade their country
How does she think the others will react to her story when she tells it? I think that some of them will be angry with Ellie because she killed those people. I also think some of them will feel horrified and worried because if they put themselves in that situation they will possibly think the same way as Ellie is thinking, full of guilt. Some also may feel proud on what she did, Ellie made a quick decision even if she will do harm to others because if they put themselves in Ellie’ shoes they might do the same because their priority is themselves and their loved ones.
How do they actually react? Why? They feel astonished by what happened. They didn’t want to hurt anybody but they already did. Homer encouraged Ellie that she doesn’t need to be worried and guilty because what she did is right on that situation of being invaded.
Homer says, “This is war now, normal rules don’t apply...They’re the ones who tore up the rule book, not us”” What does this say about his character? What do you think of the validity of his opinions? I think that he is furious and he is full of rage. What he said is absolutely right because their country is invaded probably by a different country which means it could be war. When he said that normal rules don’t apply anymore and their the ones who broke the rulebook is also true because their the ones who started the war and they imprisoned their parent’s and other innocent people, but violence is not always the answer, if possible they could take one soldier as hostage and ask questions about why are they being invaded. If they don’t answer they could turn and be violent.
Fi talks about the ‘shadows’, during their reconnaissance. What are these shadows and what are the implications due to their existence? Fi said that from what she saw they were not soldiers on how they act. If they were soldiers they would be caught because they shouted at them, instead, they ran like coward dogs.
What pieces of evidence from the book inform the reader that this invasion wasn’t entirely peaceful? Find at least 3 examples.
- Destroyed Towns
-Foreign soldiers patrolling with guns
