Questions for the courtship of Mr Lyons

6. How is the Father represented by Carter? What values does he stand for and how far do they contribute to the development of the plot?
The father is represented in a negative way as he is seen to thieve and gamble all the money he had away 'restore his fortunes' showing that he has very little sense of morals, as he gambled all the money he had for him and his daughter away. However the theft he did with a positive motivation behind it, for his daughter, 'one white rose' it is considered to be a nice thing as he has hurt her with having to make her work and push them to a lower class.


9. Look closely at the description of the Beast, and analyse the linguistic techniques used. these should include the use of repetition, adjectives, nouns, verbs, and imagery. what effect does the description have on the reader ? how do you feel about the Beast, and what has made you feel like this?

It is shown in alliteration of G
- flow of the sentence building a flow and understand of the character

    We need to work on the length of your responses. For question 6 try and use more evidence from the text to support your views about his presentation (after all it is Carter's language which presents him).

    Consider too whether his desire to please his daughter has a negative impact on her wellbeing.

    Question 9 also requires finishing as currently you haven't explained how it impacts the reader and have only identified the alliteration. Consider the adjectives, nouns, verbs etc
