Scene 1:

Stage Set: A room with pink wallpaper. Ruth is sitting on the bed and turning the pages of a book, with an expression of awe on her face.

PERCY: (shouting angrily) Ruth, what are you doing in my room? Haven't I told you umpteen times to not touch my books?
RUTH: (tearfully) I was only looking at the pictures in your book because they are so colorful and pretty.
PERCY: Well, now that you have seen them, out you go! And next time, don't touch my belongings without asking me.
(Ruth leaves with a hurt expression on her face.)

Scene 2:

Stage Set: A shoe shop in a busy street, where Percy and Ruth have come to shop with their mom.

MOM: Only one of you can buy a pair of shoes this month, as all the shoes in this shop are way more expensive than I had thought. (Takes Percy to a corner and speaks to her softly.) Percy, since you're the older one, I think you should let your baby sister buy a pair this time. You can buy your favorite shoes next month, can't you, darling?
RUTH: (hears their conversation) No, Mom, let Percy buy these shoes now, so she can wear them to the party next week, and I'll buy a pair for myself next month.
PERCY: (hugging Ruth) Well, you are the best sister in the world!. I realize I have been so mean to you, and I am truly sorry for my behavior. I'll try to be a better sister to you. (Ruth smiles broadly, hugging her sister back.)

1. find at least 9 adjectives from this opening passage used to describe the setting of the story- "to build a fire" setting: day had broken cold and gray, exceedingly cold and gray, when the man turned aside from the main yukon trail and climbed the high earth-bank, where a dim and little-travelled trail led eastward through the fat spruce timberland. it was a steep bank, and he paused for breath at the top, excusing the act to himself by looking at his watch. it was nine o'clock. there was no sun nor hint of sun, through there was not a cloud in the sky. it was a clear day, and yet there seemed an intangible pall over the face of things, subtle gloom that made the day dark, and that was due to the absence of sun. this fact did not worry the man. he was used to the lack of sun. it had been days since he had seen the sun, and he knew that a few more days must pass before that cheerful orb, due south, would just peep above the sky-line and dip immediately from view.
