Tomorrow when the war Began Task one

1 The one that they **should** of done and the one they **would** of done are completely difference, for them to find out what they should of done is that that they need to look at the big picture is there a big chances that they will be able to get their parents. There really was not much chance of them being able to get their parents out of the show ground without dying their parents might be proud that their kids gave it their all to try to save them. The one that they would of gone for is to sit tight and wait and I would of gone for it to. But it would have effects one them for life even if they do get there parents back it would all ways hunt them that they could of stop more deaths. The one that they should of gone for is to try to infect damage to the enemy even if I got captured I would think to myself that is one person that I have saved and it is one family that does not need to go through the pain of some close to them dying.

2 Murder is not wrong it war as long as it is not murder. In war there is a thin line between murder in war and doing what you need to do for self and your country. When you kill someone there will be affects for the family and friends of the people that you killed but is is not right to take a life for the sake of taking a life in war. When someone goes in to a war they are not thinking of killing anyone but if it comes to that then it is ok.

4 Other country would be less like not help in a clean war because they are surpass to not be has bad has a dirty war. A clean war is when the enemy goes in a does not kill everyone but instead they capture them a don’t torcher them. But if a army keeps taking over contetrys and does with any retaliation it will eventually have a enough resources to take over the world. When a new contery comes in to a clean war there is a risk that it might turn into a dirty war.

5 The role revers would not be faire for us as much as it is fair for them. There is no balance in the stem at the moment but if you turn the system around the people that give get the new jobs there is even more chances that they will do the same. Rich people don’t like to share especially when they worked hard to get it so why should people that work even harder than us get less money.

3 When the enemy shot down four of my close friends I was shocked they were only kids and she gunned down four of my friends and they turn up to our hospital and expect us to save of there life. I know I should help him because he is not the one that killed my friends but he is the enemy and the enemy was the one’s that killed my friends. I will save this life because a life is a life you should always try to save a life no matter what he or anyone as done but they were my friends.

Task two 1 The group is led by different people, at different times and for different things. Homer was the practical and physical leader of the group He tells the group that they have to make a choice and stick to it. He says “three choices it’s time we made one and stuck to it.” Robyn is the emotional leader of the group, she makes sure that everyone is O.K. When she realsise that Ellie hasn’t eaten for a day she fixes her bacon and eggs and Ellie says ‘by the time I had finished breakfast I felt I could maybe start to cope again’ Eilie is the organisational leader of the group. She says that she had “everyone crowed around me and yelling ideas and advice.” When the group had to choose someone to write down the groups history it took them one minute to decide that she is the one tto do it.

2 Different people in the novel show remarkable courage for different things. Robyn shows remarkable courage when she sees that lee has been shot. Robyn was normally the sort of person that would faint at the sight of injections, however when Lee was shot, Robyn picked lee up and carried him to the safety of the restaurant where she cut Lees trousers off and “stopped the bleeding with a pressure bandage”. Ellie had physical courage to light the match ‘my hand which had been very steady till then got the shakes’ even when she was finding it hard she found the courage to do it. After Ellie lit the match she need the courage to throw it or they would die ‘were about to did’ she need the courage to throw the match that she almost through to fast ‘I throw it to hard’ but it still worked. Kevin had courage to drive corrie to the hospital knowing that he was going to be captured. ‘I don’t give a stuff what rational and what logical’.

3 The group’s friendship might be tested by Chris. Chris thinks it is ok to take cigarettes and alcohol when the group should of only taken things that they needed to survive ‘we only take the things that we need to survive’ but Chris does not listen. Some people in the group that killing people was not as bad as others. if someone gets sick will everyone stay and look after the person that gets sick or will they leave them behind ‘ the only thing to do is to take her to the gate of the hospital and leave her there’, but will people will other people in the group say ‘corries my mate and I am not going to dump her”.

Task four 1 The person who changed the most in the novel was Homer. Homer at the start of the novel was wild and people found him hard to deal with ‘nobody took Homer seriously ‘but towards the end of the novel the rest of the group started to rely on him to help them. Homer was also getting confident. “Homer was confident’ because at the start of the novel he did not believe in himself. However, as the group’s attitude towards him changed, he began to see himself differently. Homer changed most because other people were relying on him.

2 In the plan to rescue Lee, Homer was not the person in the group who came up with the genius idea to rescue Lee using a bulldozer it was Ellie who said “maybe were going about this the wrong way” and came up with the completely different idea. Homer was good at planning but did not have the original idea. However in the plan to blow up the bridge Homer was a genius. He was the only person in the group who realised that the sentries would have to be distracted and he could put himself in the sentries position “suppose you’re a young soldier in a foreign country it’s late at night and you’re struggling to stay alert” Homer realised that the sentries would be scared and would climb up the bridge when the cattle charged. Homer was able to think what the problem was and come up with an original idea (the cattle charging) to solve it.

3 Ellie was not a war criminal. A war criminal steals things from house when they don’t need them or kill someone when they are no threat to you or anyone else near you. Everything the Ellie does in the novel is tho survive ‘we only take what we need’ and nothing else.

Task 6

1 Ellie got the idea to use the ride on mower as a bomb from when Kevin ran into it. Ellie also got the idea to use the petrol trail from homer. 2 Marsden created tension in the scene by using a lot different techniques. One tech Marsden uses is by putting in a joke ‘ I should of touched wood once more’ this makes it possible to but more tension in. he slows the reader down ‘ the soft thud of foot steps’ it makes the reader want to read on. Alliteration is used ‘ sheer fear’ to make more tension. The different techniques that were used helped to make tension.

3 Marsden does not make the reader identify the solders that killed by dehumanising them. Marsden keeps the people that die just as ‘solders’ not real people. He kept them very basic ‘the male’ so that they are not like us. Marsden makes them sound different to us ‘they were taking in a language I did not recognise’ they seem really different to us. He also gave them alien like qualities ‘antenna’. Marsden made the solders UN human to us.

4 The reader does not condemn Ellie for the murders of the ‘soldiers’ beause Marsden made us not care about them. Ellie had to kill them because they were ‘firing into anything that could have concealed a person’ and they had to defend them self’s. B make them unhuman ‘like they had antennae’ and it is not as bad if we kill something that is not human. he reader also believes That Ellie is not the person that kills them because when the match hit the petrol Ellie was no longer in control.

5 Marsden made them past the ‘Welcome To Warrawee’ sign and describe how fast they were going by “like bats out of hell’ because they were living hell. The line ‘like bats out of hell’ is ironic because they are going fast on the bikes and they are going into hell.

Task 7 Part one The link from __Famous Five__ and __Tomorrow When The War Began__ is that the kids in famous five are safe. The people they try to stop are not supper bad and don’t try to the kids to baldly. In tomorrow when the war began the ‘bad guys’ were willing to kill them ‘they were shooting anything that might canellas a person” UN like famous five were they were always safe. When the famous five went on an adventure their parents gave them everything that they needed unlike tomorrow when the war began they had to find everything that they need ‘we must only take the thinks we need.’

Part 2 Neville Chamberlain was a English prime minister that how kept dining that Adolf Hitler was a big threat to England before declaring war on the Germans on 3 September 1939. Neville chamberlain led the English for eight months. Most people today remember not as the minister of health that he was for so many years but the person that did not see the aggression of the Germans until it was almost to late and for many lives it was too late. Most people in live are remember form the worst thing that they did.

The day the fire came through was the worst day of my life. I did not think that there could ever be a day more horrible than that day in the trenches, the day the officers ordered me and my friends over the trenches to an almost certain death. I lost good friends that day, good blokes ordered to their death, and for what, a medal. But that was nothing compared to what I had to do that day. The fire ripped through our property like a bat out of hell. The dry hot days leading up to the fire had left the fields and the bush around the house tinder dry. I had meant to clear the bush around the house all summer, but I had always been too busy working. When the fire came through I ordered my wife and son to shelter in what I thought was the safety of the house. However when the wind changed and the bush around the house cought fire they stood no chance. My wife and son were horribly burnt by the fire, my poor little boy only three years old. I couldn’t leave him to suffer like my friends in the trenches had suffered. I had no choice but to shoot them that day. I was found not guilty, through lack of evidence, of murdering my wife and son. How could anybody think I would want to shoot my dear little boy and my wife. However how many times did I think to my- self that if I had cleared the bush or made a safe shelter for them they would still be alive. When I got back to town, every-where I went, people pointed and whispered behind my back. I knew what they were saying, that I had killed my dear wife and son, the two people I loved most in the world. The more I heard the whispers the more I felt maybe they were right, I was responsible for them and I did not protect them. After a while it got that I couldn’t bear to be in town around the whispering women. Each time I saw anybody it town it reminded me of how I had not protected my family. I needed to get right away from the accusations.

It was hared work doing everything buy myself and I had a lot of free time on my hands so I stared to make this walking stick it is my life working hard to stay alive
