Exercise 2: “Anne Frank’s

diary”
[Link] was sounding because it meant that
the sirens were all-cleared.

2. ”I was clutching my ‘escape bag’, more


because I wanted to have something to
hold on to than because I wanted to run
away.” She held it because she wanted to
have it near her just in case they should run
away in hurry and that there wasn’t going
to be time to grab her belongings she cared
about.
3. Everyone looked-out for the bombs and
guns that were firing and stayed indoors
watching everything that happened outside.
“Peter emerged from his lookout post in
the front attic, Dussel remained in the front
office, Mrs van D. felt safest in the private
office, Mr van Daan had been watching
from the loft, and those of us on the landing
spread out to watch the columns of smoke
rising from the harbour.”
4. She was scared of the sirens, which
she lost her appetite the moment she
heard it; an air-raid warning, gunfire’s
and swarms of planes. The thought of
two air-raid alarms in one day! And
also the planes which dived and
climbed that made the air drone of
engines.
5. I’ve learnt that Anne Frank was a
strong girl, in every way; and that it
was hard for her to build her life on a
foundation of chaos, suffering and
death. She saw things in a way others
didn’t intend on seeing. She was also
very positive that the world would
somehow change for the better, that
this cruelty too will end and that peace
and tranquility will return once more.
