are studying from ´Jeffrey Archer's collection " Twist in the 

Tale".



 Here are some questions to think about as you read

What is special and different about this story compared 


to all the others in the collection?


How did you find the ending? What were your reactions?

Next Tuesday there will be a test on Archer. It will consist of 


two parts.


1. The content and themes of the individual stories.



a)Comprehension questions

a) the twists
b) the characters
c) Stories you have liked or disliked and why
d) the autobiographical nature of some of the stories 


.
Here is a document with study questions to help you to
