Tommrrow, When the war began chapter 19

 

Read through Chapter 19. Use the words in bold to fill in the blanks.

There were two armoured cars in the lead, followed by half a dozen jeeps, half a dozen trucks, then two more armoured cars. We also saw a second patrol ; a truck with a spotlight mounted on the roof of the cabin and a machine gun in the back. It wasn’t a very smart arrangement, because we could see it from a long way off, the light combing the bush, backwards and forwards. We had time to slide back into the scrub and watch from behind trees. I wouldn’t like to have been a soldier in that truck, because guerillas could have picked them off easily. Perhaps it showed that guerillas weren’t so active around here. But as I waited behind the tree for the truck to pass I was surprised and a little alarmed to realise how much I was starting to think like a soldier. ‘If we were up a tree with rifles,’ I thought, ‘and one person shot out the spotlight and the others went for the machine gunner ... Better still have one person out the front shooting through the windscreen to get the people in the cabin ...’ Satisfied with our ‘time spent in reconnaissance ’ we withdrew further into the bush to talk.

Music research

 For this research each song explain: who wrote and perform the song, what is the song about, your opinion of the song.

Song: 

This is America-  by Childish Gambino. The song introduces the wider issue of gun violence in the United States, the high rate of mass shootings in the US, along with other social issues that are commonly suspected to have been results of historically widespread racism and discrimination experienced by native Americans.

I have a Dream - By Common, The song enforces the historical moment when Martin Luther King. Jr. Made the '' I have a Dream'' Speech to show what the people's crys and movement were about.

Changes - By Tupac. it was originally recorded in 1992 when Shakur was signed to Interscope Records. The rapper re-used many lines from other unreleased songs of his on the recording of “Changes” with plans to create another revised of the song at a later date.

Tomorrow, When the war began chapter 18

 

Read through Chapter 18. Use the words in bold to fill in the blanks.

‘The way I see it, these are our choices , now that we know a bit more about the deal. One, we can sit tight and do nothing. And there’s nothing chicken about that. It’s got a lot to recommend it. We’re not trained for this stuff, and it’s important for ourselves, and for our families, and for that matter even our country , that we stay alive. Two, we can have a go at getting our families and maybe other people out of the Showground. That’s a tough one, probably way beyond our reach. I mean, we’ve got and shotguns but they’d be popguns compared to what these turkeys are using. Three, we can do something else to help the good guys. That’s us, I might add, in case anyone’s confused.’ He grinned at Robyn. ‘We could involve ourselves in some way that would help us win this war and get our country back. There’s other things we could do too of course, other options, like moving somewhere else, or surrendering, but they’re so remote I don’t think they’re worth discussing , although we will if anyone wants to of course.
