Good afternoon!
This week's homework is to read Chapter Nine and Chapter Ten of 'Two Weeks With The Queen' and answer the following questions:
1) Why does Colin call the Royale Fish Bar in Peckham? (Why does he pick them instead of The Houses of Parliament or a newspaper or any of his other ideas?)
2) What does Colin do with the knife on page 73?
3) On Page 74, it says: "People come in here, their relatives have already started squabbling over their furniture." What does that mean?
4) How does Colin recognise "The Best Doctor In The World"?
5) Do you think that he really IS the best doctor in the world?
6) Describe Ted.
7) On page 81, and again on page 82, it says that Colin "felt like booting himself in the bum." Why is he cross with himself?
8) Why does Ted buy thirty chocolate frogs?
9) On page 85 it says "he remembered that mums sometimes cried when they were happy." Do you think Colin's mum is crying because she is happy?
10) When Colin hears that the air-force officer is in the Queen's squadron, he runs over to give him a message for the Queen. Do you think that the officer knows what Colin is talking about? Do you think he will give the message to the Queen?
