1. From what we have learned about the pearls symbolism is hope. The reaction the pearl evokes is greed. Lots of the people are jealous that Kino found the great pearl and Juanna beleieve Kino has changed and that he should throw it away or throw it back into the sea. She thinks that the pearl is destroying him and the family because he is caring too much for the pearl.
2. For Kino the pearl brings hopes and dream. He wants to use the pearl to send Coyoitio to school and have a better life for his family because now they have money.
For Juanna the pearl brings destruction because when Juanna and Kino was sleeping Kino got up and started protecting the pearl like it was only on his child and she does not think the pearl is a good idea.
For the doctor since he is very greedy the pearl brings out being nice to Kino because now he has money and the doctor wants some money so he is now curring the baby. But when Kino and Juanna did not find the pearl the doctor refused.
For the neighbors the pearl brings out jealousy in everyone because everyone wants the pearl and does not believe that Kino deserve it.
For the townspeople, they are wondering what Kino could bu because they want some of Kino's money and wants him to buy theres stuff.
For the priest, he is the same as the doctor, very greedy because he was wondering what Kino owes him because he wants the pearl or the money.

Sweet job, Deborah!
ReplyDeleteIt was really good but i thought you should've added a little more.
It would have brought out the characteristics of the characters more and the blog reader would understand it better.
But for the most part, i really enjoyed it.
Job well done (:
Good Job Deborah!
ReplyDeleteYou used great words to describe each of the people's feelings. The answers make a clear image of what was happening in the story in my head. I could also imagine what Juana was feeling and many other of the characters.
Great job again!
