Hi Everybody! Before reading a  story or novel (romance) we usually have a pre-reading activity (atividade pré-leitura) it helps us to have an idea about the subject . Look at the pre-reading questions and try to answer them. Use your English and try to do it by yourself.

PRE-READING ACTIVITIES


1- According to the story introduction, Jane Eyre begins life with many disadvantages. Which of this problems do you think will be hardest for her do deal with? Put it in order according to your opinion.

(   ) Having no parents or loving relations
(   ) Having very few friends
(   ) Being a girl in a man's world
(   ) Not being good-looking

2- This story was a hundred of years ago. What was life in those days? Write your answers:

a- What kind of job opportunities were avaiable for women with no family or money?
b- What was the main aim in life for most women in those days?
