Good Morning Beautiful Woman of America!

After your timed test from the AP workbook please answer the following questions from your Jane Eyre reading making sure your answers are complete and well written.

Jane Eyre Questions                                                               

       1. Compare Jane to the Reed children. In what ways do her appearance and personality differ from those of her                  cousins? What other factors set her apart from them?

       2.   How does Mrs. Reed treat Jane? What happens in the red-room? 

           

       3. After she learns that she will be leaving for Lowood, Jane engages Mrs. Reed in a “battle.” Why do Jane and                Mrs. Reed “battle”? Why do you suppose Jane is able to win a victory for the first time over Mrs. Reed?

       4. Novelists often use details of setting to create atmosphere and establish particular moods. What is the dominant              atmosphere or mood at Gateshead? At Lowood? Cite details (direct quotes) from the novel to support your       

           answer.

        5. Jane admires both Miss Temple and Helen Burns. Explain how each of them feels about how to treat one’s    

             enemies.

        6. How are Jane and Helen Burns different in their attitude toward injustice? How would you explain this difference?

        7.  In chapter 6, Jane receives another lesson in strength, this time from Helen Burns. What do you think of Burns'              diction and speech? What do you think of her philosophy?

        

You can turn in these answers at the end of class or the beginning of the period tomorrow.
