We extrapolated Max's character from Death's observation that Max intends Death to feel Max's fist on his face when Death comes . Aiden discussed Max's fighting spirit and determination in the face of daunting odds as well as how this trait will help Max survive. Additionally, we explored why Death responds to Max by describing Max's attitude as "stupid gallantry ." For Death ,the fate of all humans is inevitable and therefore he finds human resistance ,not admirable ,but entertaining. We further completed comprehension questions on the reading.
