2. There is to much threat going on. Liek Erin said chaos. I think the borther will die before they get to meet up.

3. the word i said earlier cockchafer is a beetle. Just so you know.

-Amber!

1. The narrator and his brother will make it out of the black fog. This is because the narrator tells the story in past tense. This means that he has already been through the events and has survived. His brother will make it because the narrator has information on his brother. Therefor, his brother had to have told him what he experienced.

2. I think that it will be awhile before they meet up, but they will meet. The brother is getting his own plot line with other people, so it makes sense that they won’t meet up for a bit. Since the narrator knows what his brother went through, they must have met up at one point to tell each other their stories.

3. “…article in the Referee compared the affair to a menagerie suddenly let loose in a village.” Menagerie is an important word to know. It means a collection of wild or foreign animals kept for exhibition. This shows the extent of the panic when you fully understand the above quote.

2. I do not believe that the main character and his brother will not meet up, even though I would absolutely love to see it. I think this is because it is so unlikely. With all of the chaos going on in the book the chances are very slim. It just does not seem like a possibility.

3. Again, I read on the bus like Sonam so I don’t remember many words… plus I got bus sick then but anyway…

vehement- to be angry of violent

This is an obviously important word because it is another word to describe how everyone is feeling.

1. I do believe that the narrator and his brother will make it out of the fog. The reason why is because authors like H.G. Wells usually like to give their characters hard challenges that makes it seem like they won’t overcome it, but there’s still a lot of the book left, I don’t think the main character will be killed off quite yet.

2. I personally do not think that the narrator will meet up with his brother again, my reasoning for this is that normally family makes everything more emotional and it would make it a little too much like average life if he were to meet up with his brother. Much like the dinner with his wife, it was too average to put in the story and it didn’t fit in with the information given to us by the main character.

3. I personally do not remember reading half of those words, probably because I read half of this on a moving bus, but I did find a word.
cowled- a hood shaped object.
This is significant because it is used to describe the martians and it also referred to them as “little”, and they’re anything but “little”.
