As she gazed out in the into the crowd, she saw them. They never came, yet there they were.

5. Power Question 2
Robinson Crusoe (paraphrased excerpt from book) by Daniel Defoe
Being the third son of the family, and not bred to any trade, my head began to be filled very early with rambling thoughts. My father, who was very ancient, had given me a competent share of learning, as far as house education a country free school generally go, and designed me for the law, but I would be satisfied with nothing but going out to sea. My inclination to this led me so strongly against the will, nay, the commands, of my father, and against all the entreaties and persuasions of my mother and other friends, that there seemed to be something fatal in that propension of nature tending directly to the life of misery which was to befall me.
The author uses the reaction of Robinson Crusoe’s family and friends to give the reader hints of what may happen in the story.
