"The Lady or the Tiger"
1. How did the princess find out which door held the lady and which door held the tiger?
The princess was a girl of strong will and she was determined to find out who was behind which door. This led her to pay someone to find out and tell her which door held the lady and which door held the tiger.
2. How did the king feel about the young man who loved his daughter?
The king was not happy at all when he found out about the young man who loved his daughter. He disapproved of it and threw the man in prison and put him on trial for either death or choosing a wife. The king knew that whatever the man chose he wouldn't end up with his daughter.
3. What does the word "deliberation" mean in the following sentence?
Deliberation in this sentence means the the princess was constantly thinking about the man's fate. The sentence also shows that the decision wasn't easy to make.
4. Which came out of the opened door: the lady, or the tiger? (As long as you provide details from the text to support your answer, there is no "right" or "wrong" response.)
I think the whole point of this story is to make you wonder who came out the door and even come up with your own ending. The author didn't give any hints as to who would come out the door, leaving it up to us to decide.
