HOMEWORK: CHAPTER 16 – DUE 2/28


Recalling the creature’s encounter with the drowning girl:  How does this incident further fuel the creature’s hatred for mankind and need for revenge?  How would you feel if you were the creature?

  1. At first the Creature saw the girl in need of help, so he goes to help her and he actually saves her. Normally when people save or help people out they expect to be respected or at least get a 'Thank You' in return. However when the creature helped the girl out, instead of thanking him she was scared and she ran away just like every one else ever did to him. This made the creature feel like no matter what he does, no one will ever like him. All he wants is a chance to show that he is not bad and means no harm, but all he ever gets is prejudgment and rejection, which lead him to hate man kind.

  2. In my point of view i think that this incident only furitates the creature. Only because of the girls reactions to it. I mean for the creature itself not knowing much of how people should react to things. i thnk from this incident i thnk he knew that the girl shouldve been greatful atleast of him helping her. In other words this incident made the creature mad at other people & Probably even disgusted himself & lowered its self esteeem.

  4. The creature saw that the girl was in need of help and he saved her life. He was doing a good thing and for that man to act like that towards him and shoot at him is so stupid. He made the creature hate the human race because of that. All he was doing was trying to help the poor girl and i think that they should've been thankful and should be in the creatures debt.

    @LEAH: I think you explained it best. your blog is great.
