Fatima

Because she works for him.
Why does she refer to Hussain Khan as master?
1). They have to wake up early in the morning just to work non stop and get only
an hours break. 2). They get little to eat and drink a day.
Describe what you consider the two worst details of the living conditions for most of the
workers?
The numskulls were untrusted so they had to be chained to their workstations.

It was how many days of debt they have left to work for.
What did the slate represent to each worker?
A clean, unmarked slate
What kind of slate were they all looking forward to?
Never according to Iqbal.

What was the Tomb?
Fatima had never been to the tomb since she got there. She would never do
anything wrong
How often had the narrator been there and why?
They all had painful blisters and bruises from the weaving. They sit in a very
uncomfortable positions for hours every day. Work condition were sometimes too
hot or cold, according to the season.
List three ways in which the work physically strained the workers?
She repeated the fact that she lost a lot of memory. This includes dreams and
thoughts.
Throughout the chapter, what did the narrator reveal that showed how mentally and
emotionally draining life at the carpet factory was?
In my opinion, Hussain cares more about selling the carpets the children make
than the children and his wife in total.
Considering what you've read so far, what was the attitude of Hussain and his wife
toward the children?
Karim told the children workers stories of these heroes and villains after he went
to the cinema to watch movies on them.
How did Fatima know about heroes and villains?
The heroes got a prized robe of silk and hand in marriage with his favorite
maiden.
, What prize did the heroes always get for their courage and success?
The children had painful, tired, and hard-bearing evenings while Hussain and his
wife get to sleep in a comfortable bed all night.
Compare the children's evenings, with what evenings were like in Hussain's house.
She noticed that he was handsome, then changed her mind to his eyes.
As Fatima stared at the boy the master had in an iron grip, what were her first
impressions of the boy?
There are two possibilities, either this boy met Hussain and does not like him, or
this boy has a very bad reputation.
The master said nothing about the boy to the other children. What underlying feeling
was inferred from the way Hussain Khan treated the boy, and the way the boy talked to
the master?
He worked quickly even though he had the hardest pattern.
As the boy started to work, what was there about him that impressed the other workers?
The workers have hope, strength, and loyalty for each other.
What did you learn about these workers in the first few paragraphs of this chapter?
He worked at a brick factory for a different person.
Where had Salman previously worked?
The workers had hope based of what Hussain said to them when they first got
there.
Though no one had ever seen anyone get their debt cancelled, in your opinion, why did
they continue to believe it was possible and that it would happen some day?
Iqbal said they would fly a kite giving Fatima a strange hope.
In the dark, what hope did Iqbal give Fatima?
Iqbal did not make faces, let Hussain finish a question, or do his work slow.
In what ways did Iqbal react differently to Hussain than the others did?
Karim told them.
How did the boys learn about Hussain's secret?
A very rare and unusual carpet. Only 2 were made a year.
What was a Blue Bukhara?
Iqbal was given the Blue Bukhara design to work on because he had made one
before.
What did that have to do with Iqbal?
Iqbal
Who verified Karim's tale?
The debt is never paid off.
What depressing fact did he slowly add?
They do not hear or see the things I'm blessed to see everyday. I love the sounds
of mellophones and trumpets. They probably forgot what an instrument is.
Comparing your life with that of Fatima and Iqbal, how are sights and sounds that you
enjoy in your leisure time, different from theirs?
He said that he went over his memories every night.
Iqbal seemed to remember his family better than the others did. What reason did he
give for his better memories?
Fatima feared what laid beyond her loom.
