9. What was the dwarf’s attitude?

 it was a good attitude as I prevented the brothers from harming other

species.

10. What could be the moral of the tale? (Support your idea in at least 10 lines)

 the moral would be, help others when you have the opportunity,

because they may also help you when you are in trouble, even if you

think it is not necessary at some point it will be, everything you give to

others can be returned and that could get you out of difficulty, just like

you helped them when they needed help and you may even be better

off than those who don't help.

It also teaches that like the brothers, when doing evil also fences you

bad since the brothers were amused to see other species suffer, and

for that reason they did not help them to look for the objects, it was

because of their bad actions that they ended up turned into stone, so it

can happen to anyone, in different situations if you only hurt others, it is

better to be like the dwarf who was good to others and that is why they

also helped him kindly.

The chronicle is a historical narrative that exposes the events following a

follow the order of time, according to the Greek term chronos which means

time.

-chronic is characterized by:

the events that are narrated according to the temporal order in which they

occurred,

often by eyewitnesses or contemporaries, either in the first or third person.

Simple, direct and very personal language is used and admits a literary

language with the repetitive use of adjectives to emphasize the descriptions.

It uses action verbs and presents space and time references.

In newspapers, magazines and television, the chronicle is a short narrative

written or spoken by the same author and published in a regular section of

the newspaper, magazine or television program, where daily events and

other related matters are related with art, sports, science, etc.
