10. As you read today, what surprised you? Explain how this will affect the story or how it changed your thinking about the story.
Ender's Game, is a science fiction novel written by Orson Scott Card. The section of reading that my post is in reference to is, how much Ender has improved from the beginning of training. As I read today, what surprised me is that Ender has changed so much from the beginning of his training. He is currently commander of the Dragon Army. Everyone looks up to him. Before, he was this weak little kid but now, he has grown to a mature boy. Ender is now strong, confident, and harsh on his soldiers, not anything like he was before. I think that he wants to put his soldiers in his shoes to show them what he had to go through, and to let them know that it's not easy to do this.
How this will affect the story and change my thinking about the story is, I thought that Ender wouldn't change and have a hard time getting used to training but, he is now a commander and he is not afraid anymore. Also, it will affect the story because since Ender is successful in the military now, I think that he will strive even more.
I also agree of how he turned from this little weak launchie into a mature commander. When he was a launchie he was getting bullied by Bonzo who was his commander but now its the other way around, now he is the harsh commander and bulling the little kids! Then he will probably strive more further by beating all the armys in battle school.
ReplyDeletei also agree with you because ender has changed a whole lot since he was 6 and i also think ender does strive and win alot of battles in battle school
ReplyDeleteI don't now if he will continue to strive because so many people want to kill him and have been planning to do so. Because of this I think that Ender will be either dead or severely hurt, preventing him from reaching his full potential.
ReplyDeleteI thought that he would become better, but I never thought that he would become a commander.
