Your answers lack specificity...meaning you need to be more specific with actual proof from the novel.
DeleteNumber 6 is right
Delete1. I think the reason why the boys have to dig holes in the lake is because its to punish them. Also, in the book its says that, "If you take a bad boy and make him dig a hole every day in the hot sun, it will turn him into a good boy."
ReplyDelete2.I think the narrator feels you might as well lie in a hammock if you are bitten by a yellow-spotted lizard is because you will die a slow and painful death. Also, there is nothing anyone can do to you anymore.
3. People end up at Camp Green Lake is because they were being bad; it turns a bad boy into a good boy.
4. Stanley says that he didn't do anything bad. Also, he was in the was in the wrong place at the wrong time.

6. It strange that Stanley's father is an inventor because all the failed invention he blames his "no-good-dirty-rotten-pig-stealing-great-great-grandfather".
1) I think the reason why the boys have to dig holes in the middle of the lake is because it was there consequence for the things they supposedly did wrong.
ReplyDelete2) The reason why the narrator says that is because if you get bitten by a yellow-spotted lizard there is on-one to help or anything to help you, you are going to die.
3) The reason why the people end up at Camp Green Lake is because you did something wrong and you have to choose going to jail or going to camp green lake.
4) Stanley say that he was convicted of doing something that he really didn't do also said that " he was at the wrong place at the wrong time".
5) I think the "if only" song is telling me that the father wants to be in peace and wants to be alone.
6) It is strange because his father is an inventor and he is in trouble and basically in jail
1)I think the boys have to dig holes in the bed of the lake because it is the punishment for the bad thing they did.But the book say's if you take a bad boy and make them dig holes almost everyday it will turn them into a good boy.
ReplyDelete2)The narrator feel you might as well lie in a hammock if you are bitten by a yellow-spotted lizard because u will die slow and painful.
3)people end up at Camp Green Lake because they are bad and it suppose to turn them good.

copy-cat :-P
Deletehey look you got to stop coping people hard work when are you going to learn this is like your 20 time you copy of the same person
DeleteAmen!!!!
Delete1)Creo que la razón por la cual los chicos tienen que cavar agujeros en el centro del lago se debe a que estaba allí como consecuencia de las cosas que supuestamente hizo mal.
ReplyDelete2)Creo que el narrador siente que usted puede ser que también se encuentran en una hamaca, si usted es mordido por un lagarto con manchas amarillas es porque usted va a morir una muerte lenta y dolorosa. Además, no hay nada que nadie pueda hacer para que nunca más.
3)La razón por la cual las personas terminan en el Camp Green Lake es porque usted hizo algo mal y tienes que elegir ir a la cárcel o ir al Campamento Lago Verde.
4)Stanley dice que él no hizo nada malo. Además, él estaba en el se encontraba en el lugar equivocado en el momento equivocado.
5)Su tratando de decirnos que es un inútil cerdo asqueroso olor. A mí me parece como si realmente no se lleva bien con él, pero todo lo stanley podía aquí es su voz.
6)Es extraño que el padre de Stanley es un inventor, porque todo el invento no le echa la culpa a su "no-bueno-sucia-podrido de cerdo de robo-tatara-tatara-abuelo".
The boys have to dig holes because people thought that it might help them in chapter Two "If you take a bad boy and make him dig a hole every day in the hot sun,it will turn him into a good boy." Which in my opinion is wrong yes they should be punished however not to the point where they can die.
ReplyDeleteThe nartor tells the reader that if you get bitten by a yellow spotted lizard you will die. Also he tells you that there is nothing anyone can do for you(chapter1).
I wondered maybe like everyone else who has read this book why would anyone go to camp green lake? Well on page five the author tells the reader that people were not given a choice. Despite that Stanley Yelnats was however he had the choice beteen jail and going to camp green lake he took camp sence he never been to one before.
Stanley Yelnats says he was innocent of the crime for which he was convicted.He'd just been in the wrong place at the worng time.(page seven)
The song if only tells me that Stanley's father has made mistakes that he wishes he can undo.
It is not strnge that his father is a invetor I think it must be nice to come up with new things. If his father failed like maney Stanleys before him He blamed his great grandfather who stolen a pig from a one leged gypsy, and she put a curse on him and all his descendants (page eight).
1:In my opinion I think the boys dig holes to teach them a lesson.That lesson is to never do the bad think or horrible think they did before.In this case Stanley is blame for something he didn't do.
ReplyDelete2:I think the narrator feel we might as well lie in a hammock if we are bitten by a yellow-spotted lizard because we are going to died anyway.For example there is nothing we can do about it.So lets died in a soft thing like a hammock.
3:People end up at Camp Green Lake because that is were they change people.Also the kids have a choice of going to Camp Green Lake or Jail.If I was them I will of went to Camp Green Lake.
4:Stanley think he did nothing wrong, and I strongly agree with him.
5:It means that if only Stanley father was there nothing of this would of happen.A other chicken would of sing.
6:It is strange that Stanley s father is an inventor because non of his invention really work. Every time he will mess up he will blame
his "no-good-dirty-rotten-pig-stealing-great-great-grandfather.
