Question

what did the young cratchit do so that wouldn't be tempted to shout?
​

Answer 1

Explanation:

They put spoons into their mouths as if to hold in their shrieks of delight. Finally, before the goose is carved, the dishes are laid on the table and the family says grace. At last, Mrs. Cratchit plunges the carving knife into the cooked goose, and Tiny Tim beats on the table with his knife and shouts, "Hurrah."
