1 Name: Date: Hour: Close Reading Activity Chap 2- Group 1 Of Mice and Men English 10 Block DIRECTIONS: Based on the specific questions your group is assigned, read the passage (identified below) and respond to the questions INDIVIDUALLY. When prompted, share your findings with your group. Then, craft a paragraph discussing what you found. PASSAGE: To a Mouse Robert Burns (Whilst ploughing on a November day, Burns ruined the nest of a field mouse. He ponders why the creature runs away in such terror) 1 Oh, tiny timorous forlorn beast, Oh why the panic in your breast? You need not dart away in haste To some corn-rick I'd never run and chase thee, With murdering stick. 2 I'm truly sorry man's dominion Has broken nature's social union, And justifies that ill opinion Which makes thee startle At me, thy poor earth-born companion, And fellow mortal. 3 I do not doubt you have to thieve; What then? Poor beastie you must live; One ear of corn that's scarcely missed Is small enough: I'll share with you all this year's grist, Without rebuff. 4 Thy wee bit housie too in ruin, Its fragile walls the winds have strewn, And you've nothing new to build a new one, Of grasses green; And bleak December winds ensuing, Both cold and keen.
2 5 You saw the fields laid bare and waste, And weary winter coming fast, And cosy there beneath the blast, Thou thought to dwell, Till crash; the cruel ploughman crushed Thy little cell. 6 Your wee bit heap of leaves and stubble, Had cost thee many a weary nibble. Now you're turned out for all thy trouble Of house and home To bear the winter's sleety drizzle, And hoar frost cold. 7 But, mousie, thou art not alane, In proving foresight may be in vain, The best laid schemes of mice and men, Go oft astray, And leave us nought but grief and pain, To rend our day. 8 Still thou art blessed, compared with me! The present only touches thee, But, oh, I backward cast my eye On prospects drear, And forward, though I cannot see, I guess and fear. QUESTIONS: (First Impressions) 1. What is the first thing you notice about the passage? 2. What is the second thing? 3. Do the two things you noticed complement each other? Or contradict each other? 4. What mood does the passage create in you as a reader? Why? 5. Why is it important for the reader to know what you have just analyzed and explained? How does the passage you have chosen help us understand the story, poem, or play more completely? Response: Please record your response on a separate sheet of paper.
