Have you ever thought you understood a person based on a story that you have heard about them? Have you ever guessed about a person's personal life because of the clothes they wore? Or, have you judged a person because of their friends? Although classifying people in this way is typically discouraged, authors deliberately use your preconceived ideas to help you form an opinion about the character or to at least have a better understanding. Can you think of a time that you made a character call about someone based on external aspects? Were you correct, or incorrect? Has anyone ever made an incorrect assessment of you based on external aspects? Write two paragraphs about it in your journal.

the answers are:

1. dolores driscoll - b. first person minor

dolores is a minor character who happens to be driving the bus at the time of the accident. she narrates picking up each of the children and her last memory is the children being thrown around the bus.

2. billy ansel - a. first person major

billy loses his twins in the accident. he tells his own story, how he witnessed the accident and how he tried to the rescuers. he is a major character, as he is at the center of the story.

3. mitchell stephens - c. first person observer

mitchell enters the story after the accident. he is a lawyer who learns about the accident based on other characters observations. though he tells the story from a first person perspective, he is just an observer.

as for matcthing the message or lesson posted with the person who said them:

1."obviously, you can't control everything, but you are obliged to take care of the few things you can. i'm an optimist basically who acts like a pessimist. on principle. just in case." - dolores driscoll

2. "i could no longer believe even in life. . for me now the only reality was death." - billy ansel
