PRE-READING ACTIVITY Read the following excerpt. Underline all details of characterization of
Margot and highlight Margot’s actions.
Margot stood alone. She was a very frail girl who
looked as if she had been lost in the rain for years and the
rain had washed out the blue from her eyes and the red
from her mouth and the yellow from her hair. She was an
old photograph dusted from an album, whitened away, and
if she spoke at all her voice would be a ghost. Now she
stood, separate, staring at the rain and the loud wet world
beyond the huge glass.
