1. In "The Hike," how does the narrator depict the character of Mr. Arseno?
krok68 [10]

Answer:

In "The Hike", the reader can infer that the way the narrator depicts the character of Mr. Arseno is a fun easy-going guy. The text states in paragraph 8 "In all the years the Arsenos had been camping, he’d made it clear that the point of being there was to have fun. As Emily watched her father she was pretty sure he wasn’t having any fun." From this you can tell that Mr. Ardeno is not a competitive guy, he likes to have fun and go with the flow. The text also in paragraph 20 says "The Arseno children were tempted to gather snowballs and surprise the latecomers as they topped the ridge, but Emily’s dad made it clear with one look that he didn’t approve of such an idea. She knew, as her father knew, that the length of time it took them to get to the top was embarrassing enough for Mr. McGee without getting a face full of snow, too. " This shows that Mr. Arseno is not one to brag or to boost. This is important because it adds to the theme of the story and builds Mr. Arseno's character.

In the margin, explain the reactions of the men to the man in the dry goods store
kifflom [539]

The storm guys reacted strangely to the man at the dry store. They addressed him in a variety of weird tones.

  • They addressed him in a variety of ways, from friendly and polite greetings to carefully phrased advise about changes in his personal look. The man quickly escaped, and the throng roared, like ogres who had just devoured something.
  • Stephen Crane's The Men in the Storm is a pleasant narrative of homeless men struggling against the cold, the elements, and hunger while maintaining a sense of human decency and optimism.
  • The men have been roaming all day and now need to find a place to sleep for the night. They push and shove their way into the beautiful realm of warmth and comfort. A police officer joins them and keeps the peace while the men wait for the door to open for the night. When it eventually opens, the guys push and press until they are about to enter and each one regains a sense of dignity, self-worth, and satisfaction.

Thus this is how they reacted to the man in the dry store.
