9-"Nobody is good enough for my darling Lucie," Comment.

Carton. She thought that nobody was good enough to marry

Lucie.

living in those terrible conditions.

Comment.

The Marquis said these words to one of the villagers when he

in dust. He ran away down the hill outside the village.

12-Killing the Marquis is a kind of revenge. Explain.

The name of the Marquis's family was hated everywhere in

13- Describe the conditions of Charles Darnay after the death of his uncle.

Darnay had become a successful teacher of French in London.He had known, when he came to London, that he would have to

work hard to earn his living, and he was successful. He was in

love with Lucie from the time of the Old Baily.

14- After Darnay had told Dr.Manette about his feelings towards Lucie,

Dr. Manette returned to his old prison work of making shoes. Explain.Dr. Manette loved his daughter very much. That love was the

Mr. Carton said these words to Lucie when he visited her in her

way of his life was not good for his health. She asked him to

change the way of his life but he said that was too late.

16-The idea of sacrifice came to be clear when Carton told Lucie about

his love. Explain.

When Mr. Carton told Lucie about his love, he knew that she was

in love with Mr. Darnay, so he asked her not to tell anyone about

what he had said. And she should know that he could do

anything for her or for anyone close to her. He could give his life

to keep someone she loved alive and close to her.

17- "I'll put him on the list tomorrow." Comment.

These words said by madam Defarge to her husband in his wineshop. That was when he told her about the spy that was sent to

Saint Antoine. Madam Defarge had a list where she recorded the

names of the poor's enemies, like the noblemen, the landowners

and every person oppressed the poor.

18- Defarge wasn't happy when he knew that Lucie married Mr. Darnay.

Explain.

Because Miss Manette had married the nephew of the Marquis

that Gaspard killed. Her new husband was really the new

Marquis, but he preferred to be unknown in England. Defarge

and his wife recorded the name of Evermonde in the list of

revenge because they were the enemies of the poor.

19-There was much blood and violence in the French Revolution. Explain.

They carried guns, knives, sticks, even stones anything that

could be a weapon. They shouted and screamed ready to fight

and to die in battle, set fire to the Bastille and freed the prisoners,

killed the officers, set fire to the castle of the Marquis and

watched the fire and they did nothing to save the people inside.

20-Things were changed in France after the revolution. Show how.

The citizens in France had fought to gain power, and they used

it. Castles were burned, laws were changed, and the rich and the

nobles died their heads cut off by that terrible machine of

death, the Guillotine. In Paris the king was put in prison, and

was sent to the Guillotine as well.

21- Why did Mr. Lorry have to travel to Paris?

Because his work there was to find and hide papers that mightbe dangerous to the customers of Tellson's bank.

22- "You must not go. Your life is here, with your family." Comment.

These words were said by Mr. Lorry to Mr. Darnay who wanted

to travel to France to help the poor people there as he was sorry

for them. This situation reflected to us how Mr. Darnay was

sympathetic to the poor people in France not towards his family

there or the noblemen.

23- The French Revolution defended the rights of the poor and at the

same time oppressed the innocent. Explain.

The French Revolution couldn't differentiate between the

noblemen who were so cruel to the poor and those who weresympathetic to them. They killed even the servants of the

noblemen just because they were employed by them. That

happened with Gabelle, the Marquis official, although he did his

best for the poor. Also Mr. Darnay was a victim to that cruel

revenge. He was arrested and sent to prison although he left his

uncle defending the rights of the miserable people.
