Viscious Circle

Question 1: Write a list of all the characters in this story and describe what type of person they are.

Elaine – Elaine is a good person, though she is the one caught in a viscious circle. She is hanging around with friends that have bad influence on her. The leader of her friend-gang make she do anything she donsen’t like

Cordelia – She is to put it simple cruel. She can’t stand being made fun of, and she bosses others around. She makes Elaine do things she doesn’t want to do. She is dependant on her friends.

Carol – She is not as bad as the others. She is at the bottom a good person, but is bossed around, just as Elaine. Carol cares for others, and she takes things seriously. I think it would be best for her if she found her some other friends.

Grace – It’s not to much about her, but from we see she is basically Cordelia’s puppet. Cordelia’s opinion is her opinion, and she does what Cordelia tells her to do.

Elaine’s Mother – She cares for Elaine, and she knows that her friends are not good for her. That why it wasn’t hard for her to tell who threw Elaine’s hat from the bridge even if Elaine did not tell her.

Question 2: What is the theme of this story? What is the author trying to get across to the reader?

The theme in this story is how some friends have bad influence on others. She is trying to tell you that you should have your own opinions.
