As you know, this week's homework is to continue with 'Two Weeks With The Queen', this time reading Chapters 6,7 and 8.
1) Describe the character (and, if possible, the appearance) of Colin's aunt, uncle and cousin, using quotations from the text.
2) How does Uncle Bob feel about the Royal Family?
3) Why do they all go to the hospital (page 49)?
4) How does Auntie Iris treat her son Alistair? (Remember to PEE - provide evidence with quotations)
5) Why doesn't the guard at Buckingham Palace help him, or even speak to him? (You may need to research Royal Guards at Buckingham Palace to find out about the traditions.)
6) How does Colin try to contact the Queen? (He tries more than one way.)
7) Why do Colin's aunt and uncle "chuck a mental" at him? (What do you think "chuck a mental" means, from the context?)
