SAMPLE ANSWER
EXPLANATION

          The novel which I have read is The Phantom of the Opera by Gaston Leroux. The story is about a love triangle involving Erik, Christine Daae and Raoul. I found that the disappearance of Christine Daae was very important in the story.

Introduction
  • State the novel that you choose and state the author of the novel
  • State briefly what the novel is about
  • Write one statement that answers the question


          On the night that Raoul planned to run off with Christine, Erik kidnapped her and took her to his house on the lake. Driven by strong determination, Raoul and the Persian ventured into the underground of the Opera House in the quest of rescuing Christine. Nevertheless, they fell into Erik’s trap. They were tortured to death in the room of mirrors and suffered from thirst from the intense heat in the room. They were unable to help Christine.


Evidence 1 + detail
  • Write the sequence of the incident in detail.
  • Who were involved?
  • Where the incident took place?
  • What happened?
  • Why & when it happened?


          In order to save Raoul and the Persian’s lives, Christine made a sacrifice by telling Erik that she was willing to marry him. Despite Erik’s hideous face, she agreed to be Erik’s wife. She kissed Erik lovingly on his ugly mouth. Her kindness touched Erik’s heart. Then, Erik set Christine, Raoul and the Persian free.

          This incident is very important because we learnt that Erik was not at all evil and that he too, was a human with a heart. We also learnt that the Persian was a helpful person and he knew Erik quite well. Apart from that, we learnt that Christine was a very nice young lady and she had a kind soul. Besides that, Raoul was very much in love with Christine and he was willing to look for her even though she was captured by the Phantom of the Opera, Erik.


Evidence 3 + detail
  • Write on why you think this incident is important
  • What are the moral values from this incident


           I think the disappearance of Christine Daae was very important in the story because there are lots of lessons that can be learnt from the characters’ involved.
