What can we learn from this story
/What does the writer want to tell us
“It’s important to stick with it. I can’t sit around and worry about the flood.” (Line 28-30)
“I have no time to think about the flood.” (Line 33-35)
But my cries fell on deaf ears.(Line 37)
People just sat and stared at their computer screens. (Line 40）
In surprise, people finally started to notice the flood, but it was too late.(Line 46-47）
There was no water. I was safe--for now.(Line 48-49）
People didn’t take the flood seriously.
When they noticed the flood, it was too late to escape.
If a flood really takes place, it will bring huge damage.
People should care more about the environment.
People should put life and safety in the first place.
People should learn how to stay safe when facing natural disasters.
A moral is often the central theme of the story and the lesson the readers can learn.
“What can I learn from this story ”
“What does the writer want to teach us ”
If you were in Kevin’s dream, what would you do
