English

5 0

Answer:

1. Marie had to cross the lake to get help for Gramps.

This decision is not really a good idea as it is dangerous to walk on the frozen lake.

2. They showed their love for each other by taking care of one another and also by their common love for the legend which Marie used to comfort her Gramps.

Explanation:

The short story <em>There Were Giants</em> by Roland Smith tells the story of how Marie had to spend the winter with her grandfather. The story also reveals the relationship between the two when her grandfather had an accident and she had to decide on an impulse on how to get help despite the dangers of the area.

1. Marie had to cross the lake to get to the Bensons to use their telephone so that she can call for help for her grandfather who had passed out in the snow.

The decision to walk across the frozen lake may not be  a good idea as the lake is not fully solid and the ice may break anytime which is dangerous for her to walk on.

2. Marie and Gramps show their love for each other by taking care of one another despite the dangers. Their love for the legend of the finger, and how they know how to comfort one another shows they cared deeply for each other despite not really admitting to it.
