5A-Peter-TuckResponses


 * __Tuck Responses__**

//Prologue// No, because I will still look young and I won't get money since no one will take care of me. I would want to live when I am 27 because I will be married and won't be alone. Also I will have a job, not someone without money.

//Chapter One// The author is telling us to take care of the land well. I agree because if you don't take care of nature well, then we can lose our resources and there will be differences.

//Chapter Two// The author tells us that the setting is at the Tuck's house. The Tucks are seein their sons they haven't saw from ten years ago. Mae Tuck is really excited in seeing their sons, but Tuck isn't, he is just sleeping in his bed. I think Tuck is not a optimist guy. Also since the quote say //dawn,// I think that's the reason why Tuck is excited in seeing their sons.

//Chapter Three// Winnie is sitting on her backyard when lunch is coming up soon. Winnie Foster's began to sat down and did nothing, so I think she is bored. Then Winnie saw a toad. Winnie spoke out all her feelings that she had (feelings when she had stress) to the toad. She thought and hoped the toad. The toad was not even looking at Winnie, so obviously the toad wans't paying attention.

//Chapter Four// The story takes place at the Foster's gate during evening. A stranger is in the gate of the Foster's. I think the stranger is going to cause danger to the Foster family. The stranger doesn't speak, but he tries to hide something. I think he has a suprise because why would he come to the Foster's gate? Just to cach fireflies when he was little? Winnie talks to the stranger about living for a very, very, long time. I predict that something impulsive will happen since he asks about living in the house for a long time. Also, while he was talking about living in the house for a long time, his voice echoed, I think this gives a clue about something astonishing happening.

//Chapter Five// Jesse doesn't let Winnie drink the water because if she drinks it, she would have live everlasting. If I were Jesse, I would not let Winnie drink the water because if I tell the secret, maybe she will spread it across everywhere. Also, if Jesse tells about about the water, people would be trespassing in the woods, when they shouldn't.

//Chapter Six// //1. "...though her heart was pounding and **her backbone felt like a pipe full of cold running water**, her head was fiercely calm." (p.32)// There wasn't really a pipe full of water. Babbit meant emphasized that Winnie was scared when she saw Mae and miles. 2. I think Winnie didn't tell the Tucks because she thinks the stranger was looking for the Tucks because when he went to Winnie's yard, he was looking for a family. I think the Tucks was the family he was looking for.

//Chapter Seven// The plan Angus made didn't go out well beacuase it might be how the Tucks can hide the special spring. I think that's why the stranger knows about the spring by following the Mae and Miles in the woods to see what's so fascinating.

//Chapter Eight// The stranger who came to the Foster's gate overheard about the special bubbling spring. So he sneaked into the woods and followed Mae, Miles, Jesse, and Winnie to observe characteristics about the spring water. Now the stranger knows about the characteristics.

//Chapter Nine and Ten// 1. The Tuck's house is like a cabin quite small. But then compared to the Foster's house, it is the touch me not cottage and it is a house because they own Treegap. Also, there isn't really a fence ang grass cut painfully. Compared to my house, it really is an apartment and we have well-developed technology. Also, we have sercurity guards and parking lots. In addition, my apartment has more then 1 story (37 stories). Also, we have a bigger house. But we don't have a yard. Also, we have a snack bar. 2. I think it is a curse because if you marry, you don't get any older which makes people think you're haunted like what happened to Miles, (his family left him alone).

//Chapter Eleven and Twelve// Angus Tuck doesn't really like it about eternal life. In chapter 2, he had a good dream about himself dieing. The third quote about rocks on the roads mean how boring it is to be everlasting. Rocks on a road do not move for long periods, which is analogized to the Tucks where Angus thinks it is just nothing special. Mae, Miles, and Jesse are so excited about the issue of the spring. The Tucks are all pleased that they can exist in the universe forever, where only Angus is grumpy about it.

//Chapter Fourteen// Jesse's quote is about himself and Winne getting married. Despite Mae, Miles, and Angus doesn't know about this situation, Jesse wants to make a good relationship with Winnie. Winnie Foster likes Jesse now and when she first met him. Jesse also quite likes Winnie too. I think what Jesse is trying to say is that they should marry and have a really pleasant time. Jesse wants Winnie to drink the water when she is seventeen years old then drink the water from the spring so they can live happily and forever.

//Chapter Fifteen and Sixteen// I think the main reason why the stranger is acting this way because he isn't doing this for Winnie, the main reason why he is doing it is for the spring in the forest. He is really impatient to get the spring. On page 79, it //says "Would you mind if i rode on ahead? I'm worried about that child. I'll tell you how to get there, and I'll go on ahead and keep watch."// This means he is on a rush for the spring. The main reason he is doing this is for the spring in the forest, not for Winnie. If I were the constable I would go with the stranger, because there maybe something suspicious happening, because why wouldn't he ask the Foster parents to go? So I think there would be something mysterious going on.
 * 1.** While the stranger was talking to Winnie's parents, I think he was acting suspiciosly because pretty much, the main reason he wants to trade Winnie for the woods is because of the spring. Also, I think the Fosters think he is suspicious because on page 74, he says //"it would mean a great deal to me to own it",// thats means for one reason, he wants the woods. In addition, he is also kind of showing off also since at page 74, it says //"Isn't it fortunate that I was a witness!".// And for one particular reason, he doesn't want the Fosters to go with him (also the constable)-and a bad reason, he lies to them that since the Tucks are kidnappers, he says they should come (page 74). The main reason he doesn't want them to come because sincehe wants the spring he doesn't want them to know (in my own opinion).
 * 2**. The constable was very suspicious to the the stranger. On page 77, it says that since the Fosters sold the woods to the stranger. This makes constable even more suspicious, I think he (the constable) is thinking if the stranger was witness why didn't he tell the constable earlier? Also the constable is a very a lazy person also, because he whined that it was 20 miles long. Also, he was complaining that the stranger roust him in the middle of the night.

//Chapter Seventeen and Eighteen// 1.The main reason Miles didn't take his family to the spring because he didn't know about the spring that time. I would want to take my family because I wouldn't want my family to die and also I think they wouldn't as well. Also, if we lived in the future we would see all the newthings and robots and even more. In addition, even I don't want to die, not my siblings, not my parents and no one! 2. The converstion between Winnie and Miles were the exact same as the one between Winnie and Angus. They are the same because they are both talking about eternal life and how would it be like. But it differs because in this one, Winnie asks Miles some questions, however in the one with angus and Winnie, only Angus was talking. Since Angus is an adult, he explained it more difficultly, which makes Winnie not understand what is going on. But when Miles was talking, he explained the a way that Winnie can understand it.

//Chapter Ninteen and Twenty// 1. The yellow suited man says that Tuck should not have the spring. I think he will sell the spring because he wants to have more money and I think he will save the spring water for himself. I think he is trying to anger the Tucks because he has possession of the spring. Taking other people's stuff isn't good thing to do. For example, if you had a brand new video game, and someone steals it, you wouldn't feel good. When the stranger spied on the Tucks, that lead him into big, big conflict waith the Tucks. 2. The stranger felt envy and starving because he felt envy that the Tucks had the spring while he didn't, and he felt starving meaning he was dehydrated for the spring water. If this had happen to me I would have "//I just guess I can't have the spring, well that is my problem, I really wanted it, but I just failed in to getting the spring",// and then I would die. And that is just to bad for me.

//Chapter Twenty-One// Winnie felt sorry for the wasp. She knows what would happen if she was the wasp. She also thought about Mae killing the straner. She tought in her mind that, did Mae feel sorry for the man when she killed him? She also thought about Mae being sent to the gallows and thoougght if she was Mae. I killed an insect variouses of times. When I was about 6 years old, I saw alot of these ants in one big line. So I sprayed water and steped on it. I saw them scurying everywhere around. I felt ashamed because they didn't eve harm me but I just killed it for no reason. However these days, whenever my mom sees even one bug in the house, she always kills it. The reason is once an insect came and BITE!! My mom was in pain, so she hated pests in my house. However sometimes I just feel sorry.

//Chapter Twenty-Two// I think Pa doesn't want Winnie with the Tucks, because I think he wouldn't want anyone to be in trouble. Because the constable thought that they kidnapped Winnie, but Winnie lied to them. But maybe, he will find some evidence that makes the Tucks snatched Winnie fom her house. In my own point of view, I would want Winnie there because she dress up like Mae, and pretend she is in the gallows. And later, right when Winnie is hang she can wait for few seconds and the Tucks can sneak out and save her, or my other idea is that Pa, Miles, and Jesse can make a distractment with the constable and Winnie can get her out of the cell and get out of the room.

//Chapter Twenty-Three & Four// In my own opinion, I think that this quote means that iron bars and stone walls equals one prison and it is really hard to break through this prison. It even shows how seucred the cells are in the jail, the qoute means it is really hard to break through the iron bars or stone walls in this prison. Then the jail must be even stronger than that. The iron bars were super solid, you'll break your knuckles if you try to push with all of your force into it. So I think this quote means it is really impossible to break through tis jail at once.

//Chapter Twenty-Five and Epilogue// Angus Tuck said that she was right not to drink from the spring because then, the secret of the spring might have been known to other people in the city. So I think Tuck is right for letting Winnie refuse to drink the water because if she did people who knew her really well would be suspecting. For example, if she is now 64 years old and wants to meet Winnie and sees that she looks the same, then she will be ending up like Miles getting her soul sold to the Devil. If I were to be Winnie, I would've not drink the waer and drink the water, hal and half. Because for drink ing the water, if I did I can see the new technology in the future and also it would be more benefitial for me. The reason I wouldn't is because it is not the part of life and if I drank the water, it would be just like a rock sitting on a road. And even also this you're already have a life, but you don't need a lon one because life always comes to an end.
