Wednesday, 7th we had a test on a extract of the Fifth Child. It was quiet the end of the novel and we discovered how much the family suffers from Ben and his awful comportement.

So, tuesday 13th we corrected this test and learnt that Harriet and David will buy the house they wanted to have, smaler and more normal, and life could go on, as Ben has left his family.

Mrs Ricard lend me the novel so I'm about to read it during the hollidays because whereas I find the story difficult and sad, I'm touched by Harriet and wanna dicover she at all.

We also, thought about Harriet and David's love story which was wonderful at the beginning, with their will to be happy, to have a huge family in a isolated house ... And which finally turn dark because of the Fifth Child's birth. Moreover, although they tried to live far from the outside world, Ben's problems have brought the outside world in this heaven. In fact, the opposition between Harriet, who try to fight for her child though she doesn't really love him, and the rest of the family has brought difficulties in the family. Love ... is sometimes so much hard too keep alive ...

That's why, we said that sometimes these beautiful "love at first sight' we found in books is not as good as it seems to be. Now the question is : "If Romeo and Juliet had lived, do you think their love story would have ended as David and Harriet's one ?".

During the 2nd Hour, Maïlis made an oral presentation of Pride and Prejudice, an english novel written by Jane Austen. It's a special and complicated love story between so many persons. Indeed it talks about a family with five beautiful daughters who search true love ! Click here if you want to read a little summary of it :

We reacted on our probematic and said that it's not exactly a confrontation with the outside world because it's more a duel between the two lovers who don't seem to be made for each other. . Darcy is prideful and wealthier than Elisabeth who thinks she is not feet for him, which makes she having prejudices.

However, at the beginning, the problem is that lovers, whatever it's Jane and Bingley or Elisabeth and Darcy, are not from the same social class. Darcy is wealthier than Elisabeth who thinks she is not feet for him.
