act 2

1.What do you like best about Anne Frank? How would you like having her as a friend? The thing that I like about anne frank is that she is a very cool person to hang out with and she knows what she is talking about not like othr and she acts more mature then everyone else. I would like her as a friend she might a really cool friend too.

2. What disturbing news does Mr. Kraler bring on New Year’s Day? There was somebody downstairs where they were hiding.
b. what hint does this give about the ending of the play? That somebody knows and he or shee might snitch on them that they are hiding upstairs.

3. what is the time span of act III? The time span is like from 1 or 2 years.
b. how have the characters changed since the end of act I? they have changed because in the beginning they didn’t know each other and then they started to know each other better and they also matured the kids like Anne, Peter, and Margot.
c. how do you know that Anne has changed? Anne has changed because in the beginning she was very disrespectful and then by the end of the book she respects everyone better and talks a lot less.

4. how can Anne believe that ‘’…in spite of everything… people are really good at heart?’’Because she doesn’t judge a raice just by one set of people like Miep was helping them and Mr.crawler so she believes that they are good and not all people are mean or evil like them.
b. what does Mr. Frank mean when he says: ‘’she puts me to shame’’? He probably means that he thought oh this raice is evil everyone single one but she thought differently and more grown up.

5. for each of the following events, identify one cause and one eaffec:
a. Mr. Van Dann’s decision to steal food?
Cause: was very hungry and wanted some food.
Effect: They caught him and Mrs.Frank wanted to kick him out because he was stealing food for other people.
b. Mrs. Frank’s change of heart about wanting the Van Danns to leave?
Cause: They told her that America had already started the invasion and she was happy and didn’t think they were going to be there for much longer.
Effect: The Van Daan’s stayed and they got caught with them as well.

6. what are some possible causes about wanting the Van Dann’s attitude toward Anne and Peter’s relationship? The possible causes are like they didn’t like how the franks made the decision of letting another person in the house and the Van Daans didn’t like it so instead of showing it on the older Franks they take it out on Anne.
