  3. Question 2 • Could the same thing that happened to Anne's family happen in our world today? • Explain why or why not.

  4. MARCH 27, 1944 • The radio is switched on every morning at eight (if not earlier) and is listened to every hour until nine, ten or even eleven at night.

  5. We’re so fortunate here, away from the turmoil. We wouldn’t have to give a moment’s thought to all this suffering if it weren’t for the fact that we’re so worried about those we hold dear, whom we can no longer help. I feel wicked sleeping in a warm bed, while somewhere out there my dearest friends are dropping from exhaustion or being knocked to the ground. (11/19/1942)

  6. Question 3 Anne often mentioned that she was actually fortunate to be in hiding. What positive things came from being in hiding?

  9. JournalEntry 5 • The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely, or unhappy is to go outside , somewhere where they can be quite alone with the heavens, nature, and God. . . . I firmly believe that nature brings solace in all troubles. (2/23/44) • Examine Anne’s feelings in this quote in a 500 word essay.

  10. Journal Entry 9 • I don't want followers, but friends, admirers who fall not for a flattering smile but for what one does and for one's character. (3/7/44) • How does Anne’s relationship with Peter reflect these feelings expressed in Anne’s diary?
