Yesterday I read chapter 1 - 2 of Slide The Corner. After we finished reading chapter 1 - 2 we have to answer some questions. Here are the answers. Greg's dream is to be a rally car driver. He doesn't tell his parents because he doesn't want to think that he will be a failure to the family because all of his family is smart. Greg's parents punish him by making him redo the NCEA level 1 test and if he is home late he doesn't get food. When Greg comes home late his parents don't let him have dinner that night. If Greg doesn't do what they want he doesn't get food. Greg's parents don't give him anything personal in his room because his parents don't like cars and want him to be successful. Greg just goes to the garden and gets some tomato and some carrots as well. It is important for him to get a job so he can stay in the automotive engineering course and so if he is hungry he can get some food. William is the one who gives him the money before school starts. I agree and don't agree with what Mr Carmody said about Gregs dad because if he stands up for himself his dad might be a grump and if he doesn't stand up for himself he might not get what wants.

ReplyDeleteGreat effort on your novel study task today, I can tell you've understood the text and show evidence of this in your answers. I like how you've put them all together in a cohesive paragraph.
