How we cite our quotes: (Chapter.Paragraph)
Quote #4
"Where do you think you're going?" I asked.
"We need to explore."
"The captain doesn't want us wandering off."
"That's not what he said."
"That's what it sounded like to me."
"No. He said to make sure a crewmember accompanied us if we ventured inland. Are you a member of the crew?" (9.2-7)
Thanks to Kate's impeccable logic, now Matt has to go off exploring the dangerous jungle instead of staying with his ship where he belongs. Well, where he wants to be, at any rate.
Quote #5
She didn't slow down. "Good point. But we mustn't be governed by our fear, Matt Cruse. We have a duty, you and I."
"A duty?"
"To science, absolutely. If there are bones on this island, we must find them." (9.53-55)
This must be what drives scientists to devote their lives to discovering something new—a sense of duty. Do you think Matt ultimately shares Kate's sense of duty?
Quote #6
Kate wanted to keep going, to see if we could find its nest, but the terrain was too steep here, and we were out of time. We had to start back. I was going to be late as it was. (11.173)
Well, we know who has the heart of an explorer and who doesn't—this sounds like someone is full of excuses. (Actually, Matt's right. He is already late for his shift, which will get him in trouble with the captain. Carry on.)
