1- In one sentence, write what you consider to be the theme of the story, "The Trout."  Be sure that you do not mention specific actions or characters in your theme statement as theme should apply to situations and people outside of the story.  Themes should be universal. Â
Points will be taken off if your theme statement is more than one sentence. Remember that there are several possible themes for this story but, be sure in your own mind, that you have proof from the story for the theme you choose.

2-Below is a chart which shows the continuum from Pessimistic to Optimistic and on which you can "gauge" where a character fits at each point in the story.
For each of the stories, "The Trout" and "The Wager," decide where you think each story's main character is at the beginning, the middle and the end of the story. After you decide, put a quote in the appropriate box to support your "optimism gauge." I have done the first box for you as an example.
