Question

what made franz think M. hamel was trying to absorb everything about the schoolroom? (from the last lesson)​

Answer 1

Answer:

Franz feared a scolding at school as he had not prepared his lesson on participles, on which his French teacher M Hamel was to question the class that day. Besides, the warm and bright weather, the chirping of birds and the sight of the marching of Prussian soldiers also tempted Franz to stay away from school.
