I need some help on my homework. Here are 2 questions I don't understand. I hope somebody can help me.
Give one piece of evidence from the novel showing that Miss Trorwood is a round character.
~AND~
How does Dickens use foreshadowing to reveal Uriah Heep's role as a villain in the novel.
Thanks so much

Oh my gosh. You must use Calvert! How cool, me too!
Um, I can help you with the second one... If you go back in the beginning of the book when David first meets Uriah, it keeps saying how there's something about him that David doesn't like. That not gonna help too much, let me try specific examples.... I don't remember exactly where this was in the book but in one chapter, David walks into (I believe it's Dr. Strong's library) and finds Uriah reading a book about law. It says that David imagines a trail of slime following where Uriah's fingers passed while reading, I guess symbolizing that he's (well, ya know) a slimy and bad person.
As for the round character thing, look back in your lesson manual at the definition of "round character" they specifically use Mrs. Trotwood as an example. Read the example and just go from there, it worked for me! Hope I helped!

Well, Calvert's ok.... Just finished my last test a few days ago, but I'll have to wait for them to send me an envelope so I can mail it in. Fnally, SUMMER! My brother and sister are in regular schools so they got out before me, which really stunk, haha. Are you going to keep homeschooling for highschool? My parents have decided they've had enough of me so I'm off to public highschool next year!
