Questions

Group 1 #3 Connie is the protagonist and Arnold Friend is the antagonist. Arnold was the antagonist because he was constantly bugging Connie, regardless to her will.
Group2 #2 During the piece “Where are you going, Where have you been?” one of the most compelling character would be Arnold Friend. His traits of being incredibly to knowledgeable about Connie’s life, and wanting even could say lusting after her sets him up as a character that steals much of the focus. Arnold Friend, just in his name you can see untruth. A. Friend tries so hard to be close to Connie but underneath a mask of false that is gilded with a “friend”. The nature of Arnold is nothing more than that of the normal teenagers flaunt, but his style has an oddity. Slang terms written on his car that were outdated, strange codes and string of numbers beside it, but yet he had a car, even a convertible. His language sets him to reveal true colors. What he says, of offering her safe ride with him is hidden behind a sweet voice and calm demeanor that quickly becomes violent. Arnold Friend is the creep that is good at getting what he wants and is planning on taking it without a fight.
Group3 #3 the ending could be strongly influenced by the movie “Smooth Talk” we watched and/or the article we read about the teenage murder case. Preferably I would like the “smooth talk” ending where he just really wants to drive her around and give her some freedom and spice to her life.
Group4 #3 This setting is Anywhere, U.S.A. Oates made a great move by bringing the setting of the story into any country home or town that is built in the United States. By this it moves the story closer to the hearts of the reader. Her story could really assist the people’s understanding of the legal cases that happened in towns just like that. Then Oates was about to bring the idea of what trauma the girls endured. The setting really brought many places that were having crazy men taking young woman, to a level that anyone could try and understand and even protect themselves.
