 * __ Explanation: We covered this kind of questioning in class on Thursday. 'In-your-face' questions are questions that you can find the answer to by looking in the text; the answers are right there. 'Thinking' questions are questions you have to think about; you can't find the answer in the text, you have to use your commonsense, your general knowledge, and what you know of the characters to guess. This is one of the first steps to essay writing... you are having an opinion on the characters, based on what you know of them. __**
