    1) Stella reacts to Kensuke as if he was a long lost friend, this means that she did not act aggressively to Kensuke.
    2) Michael’s recurring nightmare is seeing his parents again, only to be woken up by the island noises and find out it was a dream.
    3) Michael feels betrayed by Stella because she isn’t acting normally around Kensuke as in the text it says that she isn’t nice to strangers but she is nice to Kensuke which isn’t her normal behaviour.
    4) Michael decides to accept Kensukes terms as if he doesn’t he’s worried that he make get hurt by Kensuke or he won’t help him stay alive on the island.
    5) The most powerful character at this point is Kensuke as he has made Michael follow his terms and made sure that Stella is happy around him.
    6) Dejected would be a good word to describe his feelings because he can’t light a fire and is also stuck on his part of the island which doesn’t really have any food and no clean water he can drink from, the mosquitoes also come over to him every night making him feel a bit depressed.
    7) I think Michael should trust Kensuke because he always bring him food in the morning and has also kept him alive ever since he found his fire.
    8) The differences between Michael and Kensuke so far is that Kensuke has an island to himself and can also speak more languages than Michael. Michael has lived with his parents at sea and also isn’t privileged on the island to have clean water or enough food on his island but he is still living as Kensuke does give him food in the mornings.

    1) How does Stella react to Kensuke?
    She reacts as if he was an old friend.

    2) What is Michael’s “recurring nightmare”?
    The mosquitoes biting him at night.

    3) Why does Michael feel “betrayed” by Stella?
    Because she wanted to join Kensuke instead of Michael and she normally barks at strangers and stayed with Michael.

    4) Why does Michael decide to accept Kensuke’s terms?
    He accepted his terms because Kensuke was the only person that was helping Michael and providing him food if he didn’t accept Kensuke
    wouldn’t provide him food and water.

    5) Who is the most powerful character at this point?
    I think it’s Kensuke because he stopped Michael from making fire and he was a orangutan that transformed into a human.

    6) Is “dejected” a good word to describe Michael’s feelings? Why?
    Dejected means sad and depressed Michael was left on the island and getting bitten by mosquitoes every night so he must feel dejected

    7) Do you think Michael should trust Kensuke?
    Yes because he was giving him food and water daily and he even helped him with his bed.

    8) What do you think might be the main differences between Michael and Kensuke’s life so far?
    Kensuke must have lived on the island ever since he was born therefore Michael used to live in his house in the town and Kensuke can transform into a orangutan on the other hand Michael cannot tranform into a orangutan.

    “Americajin? Americajin? American? Eikoujin? British? ”
    “Yes, I said relieved to have understood something at last. English, I’m English.”
    It seemed a struggle for him to get the words out. “No good. Fire no good. You understand? No fire.” He seemed less angry now.
    “But my mother, my father, they might see it, see the smoke.” It was plain he didn’t understand me . So I pointed out to sea, by way of explanation. “They’re out there. They’ll see the fire. They’ll come and fetch me.”

    1)Stella reacts like she knows Kensuke as if they were long lost friends.
    2)The mosquitoes at night searching him out and eating him alive.
    3)Because she left him to go with Kensuke instead of him.
    4)Because he can’t get food for himself and Kensuke is providing him food.
    5)Kensuke as he is ruler of the island and Micheal is following his orders.
    6)Yes as he felt like he was betrayed by Stella and his Mother and Father haven’t found him yet making him feel dispirited and depressed.
    7)Maybe as Kensuke provides him with food and water however, he has to follow Kensuke orders if he wants to keep getting food leaving him no chance of getting back to his family.
    8)Micheal has just been marooned on an island however Kensuke on the other hand has been for years maybe even decades showing Micheal is more experienced in the modern world while Kensuke is more used to the wild.
