1. What scences, moments, descriptive passages, phrases, or words stand out in your reading of the story?
The last day right before she passed away was when she said "That in all 13 years of her life no boy had ever loved her and it was pity to leave the world without knowing love.." And Then Rolf told her one thing that made her happy. He said and assured her " He loved her more than he could ever love anyone, more than he love his mother, more than he love his sister, more than all the women who had slept in his arms". With that the young innocent girl closed her eyes forever. This scene is really touching. I took pity on the girl and understand how hard her life is.
2. Did a particular image make you feel happy, or frightened, or disturbed, or angry? Why?
I felt sad and yet I also felt happy that at least Azuencea had passed away peacefully
3. Which of your five senses did this image appeal to? What do you associate witht this image, and why? What do you think the author wants you to feel about a certain image?
I envisioned the picture of Rolf sitting in front of Azuencea, looking into her eyes and tell her those precious words.
4. How do you think that your reactions to the imagery in the story contribute to the overall meaning of the story?
The story is very impressive, it was the best story I've read in Grade 10 literature textbook!
