This week I read that nobody find out about Pip`s theft of the pie from
his mean sister`s kitchen. At the
beginning he wanted to tell his brother-in- law that he took it, but , he didn`t. He was afraid that if he tells
it to him, he will lose his only friend and his support. He thought that Joe
will be disappointed with him. Joe`s attitude was too valuable for Pip.
Pip started learning to read at Mr. Wopsle`s aunt evening school. Mr. Wople`s aunt had a granddaughter Biddy,
who was also an orphan and was brought up by hand like Pip. She helped him to
learn to read.
One night Pip discovered that Joe can`t read. Joe told him that he didn`t learn
anything, because he had difficult childhood. Pip wanted to teach Joe. And he
also decided that he wants to become a scholar. But he didn`t want his sister
find out about this because she was not fond of scholars. They even decided
that Pip should teach Joe in secret from his sister. They both were afraid of her,Later Mrs. Joe returned home , She was helping Uncle Pumblechook with his shopping. She teld them that Miss Havisham wants Pip to come and play at her home. She heard about Pip through Uncle Pumblechook. He took Pip to Miss Havisham’s home the next day.
She gave Pip a good washing and put him in stiff clothes. She turned him over to Uncle Pumblechook, who took him to his home.
Pip could not understand what for was he supposed to go to Miss Havisham`s home.
Dear Anne, why indeed did Miss Havisham want Pip? What would you expect from such a character?
ОтветитьУдалитьDear teacher, to be honest I have no idea of what Miss Havisham wants from Pip.I doubt that she is a very kind woman and wants to do something good for the boy. Nobody attitudes well towards Pip, and , in my opinion Miss Havisham is not an exception.
