Mrs. jones wanted to help out some how so she said the roger mother that she will rasie the child her self and the women said "go ahead". Now Mrs Jones is rasing roger as a young adult on her own.
moral responsible
The responsible of the moral education at home should be taken by both the child and the adult. the reason why is because the child some find the time in each day to take the time out and study for a test or just read a book. The adult is also to blame to because if the child isnt taking the full responsiblety to study the adult should step in the try to help the child study more.
The school are also the blame as well because if they see that a child is falling behind in school a teacher or somebody else should step in like a tutor and help the child out with there problem. Another way that the school can take responsiblety for the moral education of a child is the way that a teacher is teaching the class. If the teacher give no efort into educating the chlidren then that teacher should be replace by a teacher who will help the child to learn and be well educated for the real world.

1. The story says Mrs. Mallard “had loved him [her husband]–sometimes. Often she did not.” If she was “often” not in love with him, why did she marry him?
She married him for the money or because her parents made her marry him.
2. What was life like for Mrs. Mallard in the home of Brently Mallard?
life was not so good because she sometimes loved him so she was not that happy with himand wanted something more for her husband
3. In the report of the train accident, Brently Mallard's name was at the top of the list of fatalities (Paragraph 2). Does this information mean that Mallard was an important citizen in his community? Does it also suggest that perhaps Louise married him, in part, because of his standing in the community?
This information could mean that he was an important citizen and that could be the only reason why Mrs. Mallard married him.
4. Do you believe Brently Mallard mistreated his wife? In answering this question, keep in mind the following: (1) In Paragraph 13, Louise Mallard recalls that Brently was kind and that "he had never looked save with love upon her." (2) However, Paragraph 8 had previously informed the reader that Mrs. Mallard's face "bespoke repression," and Paragraph 14 says Brently had a "powerful will bending her."
i think that mr. mallard did not mistreat his wife, i think mrs. mallard used him for his importrnt in the community.
5. How much of Mrs. Mallard's apparent unhappiness in her marriage was her own fault?
Not much of her unhappiness was her fault because back then the woman didnt have much choice in marriage
6. After Mrs. Mallard receives news that her husband died in a train accident, she goes to “her room.” Do these two words mean that she slept separately from her husband? Does the fact that no children are named in the story indeed indicate that she and her husband slept apart?
When Mrs. Mallard heard the new of her husband death she went to her room because after someone dies the room is now hers because of the death of her husband
7. Research the life of Kate Chopin (1851-1904). Then decide whether the death of her husband in 1882 influenced her when she wrote “The Story of an Hour,” published in 1894 in Vogue magazine.
I think that the death of Kate Chopin husband heavily influenced her to write the story "the story of an hour" because she still was greeving over his death
8. Did author Chopin herself face problems similar to those of Mrs. Mallard?
The author chopin might had problem very similar to those of Mrs. mallard because she could of had a very unhappy marriage and wanted to write about it.
She married him for the money or because her parents made her marry him.

plot summary
Ryan Jones
Plot summary:
Chopin’s “The Story of an Hour” is the story of an hour in the life of Mrs. Louise Mallard, a young woman whose wrinkles portray “repression” and “strength.” As the story begins, the narrator reveals that Mrs. Mallard has “heart trouble.” Her sister Josephine and her husband’s friend Richards have come to her after hearing of a railroad disaster that has resulted in the death of Mr. Mallard. Both are concerned that the news will make Mrs. Mallard ill and Josephine takes great care to tell her the news as cautiously as she is able. Mrs. Mallard reacts to the news with “sudden, wild abandonment” and locks herself in her bedroom. In the solitude of her room Mrs. Mallard understands the fundamental change taking place in her life. She sits in a chair, no longer crying, looking out the window at the “new spring life.” She “suspends intelligent thought” and fearfully waits for a “subtle and elusive” idea to “possess her.” She begins to comprehend that she is joyful that her husband is dead, but she attempts to suppress the thought. Once Mrs. Mallard accepts the feeling, even though she knows that her husband had really loved her, she is ecstatic that she will never have to bend her will to his again. Now that her husband is dead, she will be free to assert herself in ways she never before dreamed while he was alive. She recognizes that she had loved her husband sometimes, but that now she would be “Free! Body and soul free!” She begins to look forward to the rest of her life when just the day before she shuddered at the thought of it. Mrs. Mallard leaves her room and rejoins her sister who has been outside the door worrying. She carries herself “like a goddess of Victory” as she joins her sister to return downstairs where Richards still waits. On their way down the stairs, they hear the front door open and see Mr. Mallard walk in. He had been nowhere near the accident scene. The short story ends with the abrupt death of Mrs. Mallard, whose heart gives out. Her doctors explain that she died “of joy that kills.” I think that Mrs. Mallard was in a gloomy marriage because she might had lead and unwanted relationship with her husband because she wanted more than just to sit around the house all day and doing nothing, also her father might have pick the husband and that’s why she feels free when the Mr. Mallard dies.

narrative essay
Since birth I grew up with a reading disability called dyslexia, which is when people read or speak backwards. This reading disability leads me to not do so well with school work like studying; homework and read aloud in class would be very humiliating for me in the middle of class. It was hard growing up trying to achieve a high grade because of failing the test because I had read a question wrong. My parents would always tell me that all I had to do is study more but I soon realized that I had to do a little more to achieve a higher grade like extra credit but sometime that wouldn’t even be enough.
My older sisters would always achieve much higher than me and tell me that it’s not hard and all I had to do is to apply myself to my school work more, but everything would come more fluently to them because they had no disability when they w ere growing up. They knew little of my reading disability that I had and would think nothing of it because they didn’t fully understand it at the time. Both of my older sisters would help m e though so of my tough homework and practice reading with me which influence me to try harder in school. Threw many years of tough homework’s, long nights studying for test and the study session with my sisters and the help from my sisters I felt I was finally becoming smarter.
I also was a big influence on my sisters as well and I didn’t even know it at the time. As I grew up and got more intelligent with the help from my older sisters, they found out about my disability and them though to themselves “if he can achieve that high of a grade with his disability, what I can do if I really applied myself to my school work.” So they would apply then selves that much more to their school work. Then I realized that I was a big influence on my sisters, b y trying harder in school with my reading disability they would try harder in school and I had no idea about it. I think that you can influence anybody if you have the passion and determination in you to try and help that person, as my sisters did with me and my disability that help me achieve a higher grade in school. You can also influence other people lives and you may not even know it until many years later or you may never know the influence you had on someone’s life, as I did with my sisters. By seeing that I had a challenge in school and was still maintaining a decent average would influence them to try harder in their school work as well. Would your sibling act the same way and try to help you the same way that mine did?

compare and contrast
My two favorite things i love to do in my free time is to play the drums and bass. they are two very alike and different things in there own way.The drums you may play sitting down and the bass you have to play standing up but both of them are musical instraments. The drums are a percution instrament and the bass is a string instrament but both of these instraments you can play in a band or on stage. These are just some of the likeness and differents about the brums and bass.

reading strategy
I have many reading strategy that keep me alert and focus while i am studying or reading a novel. One steategy of mine is i to read in a comfortable environment, like a couch or a bed, with no loud noises or big distractions, but i tend to fall asleep or day dream when im that relax in my bed or on the couch. I also read in short burst like a half hour to an hour and take a tweinty minute break in between as a small reward for myself,and ill get something to eat or just rexal more witch leads to more sleep. These reading strategy of mine helps me keep focus and also helps me not to lose concentration while im reading or studying, for most of the time. In my conculsion reading in a comfortable environment and reading in short burst are my reading strategys and they help me every day with my studying and reading.
