Part A

What is a theme of Anne of Green Gables?


It is impossible to stay positive under trying circumstances.

Imagination can be more appealing than dealing with reality.

It's easier to be positive when things go according to plan.

Making a good impression can be difficult sometimes.
Question 2
Part B

Which detail from the story best supports the answer in Part A?


“Thereupon Anne held her tongue so obediently and thoroughly that her continued silence made Marilla rather nervous, as if in the presence of something not exactly natural.”

“‘But I’m glad it’s not rainy today because it’s easier to be cheerful and bear up under affliction on a sunshiny day.’”

“This made Marilla more nervous than ever; she had an uncomfortable feeling that while this odd child’s body might be there at the table her spirit was far away in some remote airy cloudland, borne aloft on the wings of imagination.”

“Anne could evidently be smart to some purpose for she was down-stairs in ten minutes’ time, with her clothes neatly on, her hair brushed and braided, her face washed, and a comfortable consciousness pervading her soul that she had fulfilled all Marilla’s requirements.”
