Question

Why were the boys angry with Mr.Dobbins?What happened when the teacher was drawing on board?

Answer 1

Answer:

The boys were angry for the following reasons;

• At the beginning of summer, Tom joins the Cadets of Temperance in order to wear one of their showy uniforms.
• Unfortunately, to join he must swear off smoking, tobacco chewing, and cursing—prohibitions that prove very difficult.
• He resolves to hang on until Judge Frazier, the justice of the peace, dies, because then he can wear his red sash in the public funeral.
• When the judge recovers, Tom resigns from the Cadets. The judge suffers a relapse and dies that night.
• When the judge recovers, Tom resigns from the Cadets. The judge suffers a relapse and dies that night.Vacation begins to drag. Becky Thatcher has gone to the town of Constantinople to stay with her parents, and the various circuses, parades, and minstrel shows that pass through town provide only temporary entertainment.
• The secret of Dr. Robinson’s murder still tugs at Tom’s conscience.
• Tom then gets the measles, and when he begins to recover, he discovers that a revival has swept through the town, leaving all his friends suddenly religious. That night brings a terrible thunderstorm, which Tom assumes must be directed at him as punishment for his sinful ways.
• The next day he has a relapse of the measles and stays in bed for three weeks.
• When he is finally on his feet again, Tom finds that all his friends have reverted to their former, impious ways.
