How do they relate? Townspeople and hole/ man vs. nature/society They throw the trash into hole to get rid of it and don’t think of the consequences of their actions Scientists and towns people/ man vs. man The scientists can’t figure out a solution so he says fill it in- the townspeople don’t question

Conflict of each Relationships? Man vs. Nature Man vs. Man Man vs. Society

Why so concerned? Industrial city Waste is a big problem with overcrowded cities Radiation Nuclear explosions/power plants Threatening- daily issues Pollution

End of story Reactions Satisfying? Why/why not? Fit expectations? Surprise ending Part of plot twist (suspense) Clues? Foreshadowing Old man’s warning top of 160 The broken rope top of 160 People accepting the hole is the answer no questions asked- no thought of consequence

Surprise Ending What is the impact? More force Situational irony Ironic reversal of expectations Opens more thought to the consequences of not fixing a problem, consequences for irresponsible behavior

Why write this surprise ending? Think about dangers of irresponsible waste disposal Think about own actions Follower or leader

What does the hole symbolize? Quick fix Not solving the real problem/covering up problem Ignorance is bliss

Who is the author blaming? Villagers Government Scientists Technology If you don’t know the answer, don’t pretend you do

What about us?
