Tomorrow, when the war began - Chapter 10

CHAPTER 10

Why does Homer insist on going on with the plans after Corrie's house blows up? How does he convince Corrie that this is a good idea?

Homer should tell Corrie that this was a good idea because the soldier now thinks that Homer and his group have died and the soldiers won't go looking for them anymore.

Describe the strategy Homer and Ellie use to ensure their safety when riding their bikes into town. What does this show about how they are starting to think?

Homer rides up to Ellie to ride two abreast and holds hands with her. Then Homer stays 100-200 meters behind Ellie and she'd stop at every corner to check and then signal. This shows that they are starting to think like soldiers, like what Homer said before.

Why do you think Mr. Clement is reluctant to help Lee and Robyn? How would you react in his position?

Because he doesn't trust them or anyone, and he does not want to get caught by soldiers. If I was in his situation I'd probably go with them because I rather go with a group other than being alone surrounding with soldiers.

How has Homer changed in Ellie's eyes since the invasion?

He has become more mature, smarter, braver, smarter, and more of a series leader.

What are the two different types of soldiers and how do they each treat the inhabitants of Wirraweee?

One type was very well trained and professional soldiers and they treat people better. The other type of soldiers were just people to make up the numbers and treated people badly. 

Why do you think Robyn had the strength to carry Lee?

I think because that's the only way for him to survive, other than leaving him there to die.

How have the group decided to rescue Lee, whose idea was this and why do they think it will work.

They'd decide to use one of the truck form the Council Depot. Robyn will go back to the restaurant and gets Lee ready, gets him close to the street, while Ellie and Homer burn down the street, stop, and throw Lee and Robyn in the truck, then go to Hell.  It is Homer & Ellie's idea.

What do you think happened to people who 'tried to be like heroes?'

Um they're probably in the hands of the soldiers now, or dead.
