Each response should be 3-5 complete sentences in length. the following questions refer to "typhoid fever."

1.) in what ways is the poem about the highwayman in the story similar to the story of patricia and frankie?
2.) how does frank mccourt re-create the voice – the speaking style and viewpoint – of a 10-year-old boy in “typhoid fever”?

1. In "Typhoid Fever" and "The Highwayman" they are similar in a lot of ways. because of her father would not allow it just like the nuns and nurses who wouldn't let Frankie and Patricia talk. In both stories the girl dies,but in "Typhoid Fever" Frankie doesn't die, and in "The Highwayman" the man dies also.

2.Frankie called Seamus "an old man of forty". Also, they are very short sentences, there are no question marks. It is informal speaking. The author did this to make the style of the writing like a child saying it.

Hope this helps ;-))
