1.- It's strange that while Grete is cleaning the room a cockroach is hiding under de desk.
ReplyDelete2.- They are talking about what are they going to do with Gregor's metamorphosis.
3.- Because Gregor has destroyed their lives.
4.- I like Gregor because although he has become a cockroach he starts to live like a cockroach eating rotten food or crawling across the walls and ceiling.
1) Gregor's position is strange. He is under the desk.
ReplyDelete2) Because they don't want Gregor to hear them.
3) Because he has destroyed their lives.
4) I like Mr Samsa because I think he is a strange character. He loved Gregor when he worked and earned money. But when Gregor is a cockroach and he can't work, Mr Samsa hates him. He only loved his son because of the money he earned. He is very selfish.
1.Is stange that his sister didn't see him under the table.
ReplyDelete2.They are talking about Gregor thinking for a solution.
3.Because he go out of his room and the lodgers see him and not pay nothing to his family.
4.Gregor because he is a good men and he still loving his family even he was a cockcroach but unfortunately at the end they decide to kill him.
1. The strange is when Grete was surprised to see the tray with the uneaten food.
ReplyDelete2. Because his parents didn´t enter his bedroom door while Grete cleaned the room.
3 Because nobody will blame their for protecting theirselves.
4 In my opinion the best character is Grete because she clean the Gregor´s room and she help her brother. And she loves the music
1.It is strange that the sister is cleanning the room

3.They want to kill him because he only cause them problems and because they think that he isn't their son
4.I liked Gregor because although his life changed he tried to be nice with his family and he loved his sister and her music. He also give money to them.
1) The picture is strange because Gregor is under the desk and Grete didn´t see him.
ReplyDelete2) I think they are talking about the money they have.
3) Because Gregor has come out of his room and the lodgers have seen him.
4) My favourite character in the story is Grete because in a first moment she persuaded her parents to protect Gregor and she gave food to him.
1.Grete wasn´t scared about Gregor and Gregor was scared about Grete
ReplyDelete2. Because they do not want to see or hear Gregor
3.Because he scared the guests and his family needed the money of his rent

1.It is strange that Gregor is under his desk while his sister is cleaning.
ReplyDelete2. Because they were talking about if there were any improvements in Gregor.
3. Because Gregor has destroyed everything for his family.
4.I liked the best Grete because when her brother was becoming a cockroach she always loved him. She brought him food and she cleaned his room every day.
1) About the picture is strange that a big insect is under the table and Grete doesn´t see it.
ReplyDelete2) Because they don´t want to see it.
3) Because he doesn´t work and does everything wrong
4) My favourite character was Grete.
Grete was the sister of Gregor. She was cooking for Gregor and got the food for him. She played the violin very good. I caught this character because is very kind and is the only person that protect and understand her brother.
1. That Gregor was under the table.
ReplyDelete2. There were talking about what are going to do with Gregor.
3. Because it gave them a lot of problems.
4.Gregor, because he is very generous to his family even if his family doesn't help him when he needs help.
1.There is an enourmous cockroach under the desk.
ReplyDelete2.Because, Gregor´s familia thought that Gregor couldn´t understand them, so they stopped speaking directly to him.
3.Because they wanted to protect themselves.
4. The character that I like the most is Gregor. He is a salesman in Prage and he provided money for his family.But, one morning, he can´t woke up because he converted in a cockroach. His boss fire him and his family need money to live. He eat a lot of stranges things like old cheese. Unfurtunately, he died in his bedroom.
1- Grete was cleaning the milk that Gregor (who is under the table) extended on the floor.
ReplyDelete2-Because I supose that they prefered that Gregor didn't hear nothing.
3-Because he was a problem for them.
4-I didn't like it a lot but one of «favourite» character is Mrs Samsa because she prefered to keep her in a side and didn't hurt him.
1. See a cockroach under the desk is strange about the picture.
ReplyDelete2. I think that they are talking that they have to do something with the cockroach. That is very weird.
3. Because they don't think it's their son.
4. Grete because she is good,generous,she cares a lot about his brother, is studious and plays the violin. I admire her
1-Grete was disgusted when she saw the bits of food left on the floor.Gregor was hidden under the desk
ReplyDelete2-They are talking about the opportunity Mrs Samsa had to go to see her son and about their economic situation.
3-Because they think he has destroyed everything and they don't consider him part of the family any more
4-I didn't like any character just because Gregor's family is very selfish and they only think about themselves,and they are maintained by Gregor just because they are very idle .In coclusion ,I can say the leading role has been my favorite character(Gregor),because he worked a lot to maintain his family and didn't complain about his good-for-nothing family
