In this activity, you will analyze theme, characterization, and Dickens’s use of dramatic irony in chapter 1 of A Christmas Carol.

Part A
Themes are key ideas that stand out or are repeated in a text. Identify and explain one important theme that you noticed in chapter 1. Include evidence from the text to support your response.

Part B
What do the following lines reveal about Ebenezer Scrooge’s character?

“Under the impression that they scarcely furnish Christian cheer of mind or body to the multitude,” returned the gentleman, “a few of us are endeavouring to raise a fund to buy the Poor some meat and drink, and means of warmth. We choose this time, because it is a time, of all others, when Want is keenly felt, and Abundance rejoices. What shall I put you down for?”

“Nothing!” Scrooge replied.

“You wish to be anonymous?”

“I wish to be left alone,” said Scrooge. “Since you ask me what I wish, gentlemen, that is my answer. I don’t make merry myself at Christmas and I can’t afford to make idle people merry. I help to support the establishments I have mentioned—they cost enough; and those who are badly off must go there.”

“Many can’t go there; and many would rather die.”

“If they would rather die,” said Scrooge, “they had better do it, and decrease the surplus population.”


Part C
Writers create dramatic irony by telling the reader about an important event in the plot that the characters aren’t aware of. This technique helps writers create effects such as suspense and humor. Identify one example of dramatic irony from chapter 1 of A Christmas Carol and explain why it fits the description of this technique.

I need some advice for a story I'm writing for English class...
It was a dark quiet night, Halloween night when Celestia screamed. Celestia was a dragon human hybrid with dark blue hair and kind light blue eyes, dark blue wings, a dark blue tail, her hair was always in what looked like two buns on top of her head the little bit of hair that was too short-covering her ears with her bangs shadowing her face, she was in a witch costume that was black dark purple and dark pink with a black hat. Nikki came running her longish white and purple hair in a messy bun, she was wearing her mad scientist costume but the fake blood looked suspiciously realistic. Wannabe ran in looking like the human form of sans along with Angel a few feet behind him dressed as a fairy. Nikki stood staring trying not to cry. Nikki’s friend Emery came in wearing her police uniform on and blue blonde hair up in a ponytail along with Rihanna in her outfit that she wore at her concert the night before, the light baby blue costume made her light pink eyes stand out and her fox tail nearly invisible under a big black bow, her hair in ponytails right behind her fox ears. The two stared in horror at what seemed to have happened, one of their friends had been brutally murdered but their face was unrecognizable from the damage. Nikki stood up and took ad headcount matching names with faces until she realized who it was. “I’m going to find the person who did this and make them pay,” Nikki said in a dark evil angry voice, she was mad and near her breaking point. Nikki left the room unable to look at her friend lying there dead while everyone else looked at each other. “Kind convenient YOU found him like this Celie…” Rihanna said to Celestia glaring at her, the two never liked each other and were always fighting. “First of all, I couldn’t handle the blood. Second of all, that’s my friend! Why would I hurt him!?!?” Celestia snapped, angry she was accused of the crime. “You found him like this. That's a little suspicious don’t you think?” Rihanna said giving Celestia looks. “I hate to say this but Nikki could have been faking the blood on her costume looks a bit too realistic…” Angel said her voice trailing off, she hated to accuse Nikki but at this point, they were all suspects except for Angel. She had said before that she'd never been able to kill someone and get away with it she’d end up admitting she did it. Nikki came back in a completely different costume, her Sara Sanderson costume to be exact. “Why did you change costumes?” Angel questioned Nikki, changing costumes because there was what looked like blood on the other was suspicious. “You act like I can choose to wear only one costume, heck I’ll probably end up wearing a cosplay before we figure out who did this,” Nikki answered, it was true Nikki tended to wear up to ten outfits a day so why would today be any different? Emery glared at Nikki, she didn’t believe her story. “Seems pretty convenient she had to change costumes so soon...” She thought suspecting Nikki was hiding something. “Let’s do this Danganronpa style!” Angel shouted, she had always thought how they did the class trials on that anime and in the game was cool. Everyone got to a podium and glared at one another. “I was passing out candy to the trick-or-treaters,” Rihanna said then turning her head to Celestia who was on her left. “I was in the Bathroom,” Celestia said, nobody was going to question her now. “I was fixing my fursuit, one of the ears fell off,” Nikki said with the tail to her fursuit in hand. “I was outside sitting on the porch,” Emery said pointing at the door. “I’m too dum.b to pull something like this off you guys know this,” Angel stated honestly, she wasn’t the brightest bulb. “I was in the kitchen when I heard someone yell for help.” Wannabe said solemnly.


Who killed him?
Btw it was cosmic that was killed. For some reason, he was a pirate. He ran into many walls. Glasses and an eye patch, not gonna mix well… ALSO! His body was found in the hallway next to the stairs.

We… do… solemnly and mutually in the presence of God, and one of another, covenant and combine ourselves together into a civil body politic, for our better ordering and preservation.” Which of the following is a true statement about the quote? This is a quote from the Mayflower Compact and reflects the principle of self-government. This is a quote from the Magna Carta and reflects the principle of limited monarchy. This is a quote from Common Sense and explains why the American colonists should declare independence. This is a quote from the English Bill of Rights and describes the basic rights of all citizens.

Of ‘Never—nevermore.’”

Open here I flung the shutter, when, with many a flirt and flutter,
In there stepped a stately Raven of the saintly days of yore.

But, with mien of lord or lady, perched above my chamber door—
Perched upon a bust of Pallas just above my chamber door—
Perched, and sat, and nothing more.

Read the passage.

A Flag with 50 Stars

The first American flag to have red and white stripes and white stars on a blue field was flown in 1776, shortly after the United States declared its independence from Great Britain. Legend has it that a Philadelphia seamstress named Betsy Ross was hired by George Washington himself to create this flag. There is no evidence that this legend is true, and no one knows for certain who made the first flag, which had 13 stars and 13 stripes. However, we know for a fact that the first flag to have 50 stars—the one we have today—was designed by a high school student.

In 1958, Bob Heft was a 17-year-old student at Lancaster High School in Ohio. At that time, the United States had only 48 states but was on the verge of accepting two more: Alaska and Hawaii. The U.S. flag at the time had six neat rows of eight stars each. What would be the best way to add two more stars while keeping the arrangement neat and orderly? This was the question that Bob’s history teacher posed to the class.

The teacher gave the students an assignment: design a flag with 50 stars. Bob spent hours in the attic of his house, cutting up a 48-star flag and rearranging the stars until they fit just right. He was pleased with his solution to the problem, but his teacher found it less than perfect and gave him a B minus. Outraged, Bob told his teacher that he was going to send his design to his member of Congress, Walter Moeller. His teacher replied that if Bob’s design was accepted as the new flag, he would be more than happy to change the grade to an A.

A year later, Bob had graduated and was working as a draftsman when he received a call at work. He never would have imagined a call from President Eisenhower—but that's who it was! Now that Alaska and Hawaii had been admitted as states, Congressman Moeller had succeeded in having Bob's design chosen as the new U.S. flag. Bob Heft was invited to Washington, D.C., for a ceremony during which his design was officially adopted as the new flag of the United States.



Which statement best describes the author’s viewpoint toward Bob Heft in “A Flag with 50 Stars”?


Bob was not a very good student at Lancaster High School.


Bob should not have contacted a member of Congress about a trivial matter.


Bob's grade did not reflect the outcome of the story.


Bob should not have spent so much time on his project.

Read this excerpt from "Mars: Landscape of the Red Planet."

In addition to its volcanic landscape, Mars also has an amazing system of canyons known as the Valles Marineris. Scientist have ruled out water as the reason for the formation of these canyons. Instead, they theorize that the canyons were formed from the splitting of the Martian crust due to the cooling of the planet. Valles Marineris runs 2,500 miles long at a depth of 4 miles, dwarfing the Grand Canyon back on Earth, which is only 500 miles long and 1 mile deep.

Canyons on Mars appear to have been formed by the splitting of the Martian crust. However, canyons on Earth were most likely formed by

the impact of asteroids causing damage to the surface.
water flowing through rivers over long periods of time.
earthquakes causing parts of Earth’s crust to rise up.
the rising of hot magma from deep inside Earth’s core.
