Question 12: Contrast what the three friends had heard at the village with what actually happened?
Answer: The three friends had been told that the road they were supposed to follow lay over the mountain. It was not a road that they could miss. A few miles further, the road would divide into three. However, they faced several problems because one of the arms of the sign post had disappeared and the road to the left of the old sign post indicated a place they had never heard of. The road to the right of the sign post led them back to the village from where they had begun their journey. So, what was supposed to be an easy route and a pleasant walk turned into the three friends walking around for about four hours while lost in a foreign country.
Question 13: How does Jerome describe his talent? What does the description actually tell us you about the skills?
Answer: Jerome has a gift for finding his way in strange places. But he also says that mountains, rivers, and other obstacles get in way. The description tells us that Gerome was good at finding his way in strange places but in reality, he was easily confused and in fact, is no better than his friends at figuring out the correct route. This means that any skill cannot be utilised without proper cooperation and encouragement.
