Answer 3

What quotation from the story do you need?

Answer 4

hey! so let me go back to the setting really quick.. can you describe it more please

Answer 5

Yeah, it takes place on Syringa street, during April, in the beginning.

Answer 6

After the slashing hurricane of mid-March, the moss-rotten dwelling looked like the house in the fairy tale that remained standing only because it did not know which way to fall and the Duvitches were forced to give it up.

Answer 7

So it continued from April to March, then "A few weeks after they moved to Syringa Street they suffered a tragedy they were all summer in recovering from--Mr. Duvitch lost two weeks' pay while gathering mushrooms in Tamarack Swamp. Inside of a year and a half, three Duvitch boys had lost, among them, by various mishaps, two fingers, one eye and an ear lobe. They were forever being cut up, bruised, mutilated by things falling, breaking, cracking and exploding." So this story is a span of two years or so.

Answer 8

i just want you to describe syringa street a little more..just like 1 or 2 sentences .. it doesnt have to be a lot

Answer 9

Syringa street is a friendly, country like, American place. People enjoy going there and there are plants and gardens. The foreigners are designated odd folks: people do not aautimatically understand them.

Answer 13

Answer 14

provide a quotation for the setting and protagonist

Answer 15

For the setting: Syringa Street seemed to be a friendly street. It was a crooked maple-shady country lane that wound through the town without losing its charm. The sidewalk here and there was almost lost in weeds and the ditches, in places, were brightened by clumps of orange day lilies. Widely spaced cottages, some of them smothered in vines, only seemed to make the neighborhood more rural. There were brilliant flower gardens, vegetable plots, fruit trees--and a few henhouses.

Answer 16

ok and protagonist?

Answer 17

Protagonist:
Tom and I, our glances meeting over the big cake of soap in my hand, were similarly and wickedly inspired--the thing was irresistible. We held a brief whispering conversation; and then, egged on by him and quite willing on my own, I played a shameful trick on the Duvitches, the memory of which will come back to the end of my days to plague me.
Dawn came but even I, a highly impressionable youngster of seventeen, did not enjoy that calm effulgent majesty of daybreak.

Answer 18

Those quotes should be in the right order. in the story the aren't right next to each other though.

Answer 19

ok perfect! next is ..
Discuss the main conflict

Answer 20

I think the main conflict is when the boys have to right there wrong and recatch all 61 fish and not be such babies about it.

Answer 21

Well, that's the conflict for the protagonist. The Duvitches or whatever? Yeah they had way more problems.
