Brightstorm - Session 16 - Reading Comprehension suggested answers
English Resource Description
In Chapter 20 of "Brightstorm," Arthur and Harriet cover their ears to block out intrusive mental messages. The wolf communicates with Arthur through thoughts, referencing Eudora Vane's 'sickly scent' of perfume. The wolves perceive Arthur as their leader due to his communicative ability, while Maudie is upset with him for recklessly endangering himself. Unlike the children, Felicity cannot hear the wolves because she is an adult. The wolves have offered to help Arthur seek justice for a fallen pack member, believing that if Arthur can prove Eudora Vane's involvement in Ernest's death, she will face punishment.
A concise summary of the chapter would be: Arthur and Harriet use thought-blocking against buzzing messages. Wolves communicate telepathically with Arthur, considering him their leader and offering help to avenge a pack member's death by exposing Eudora Vane's crime, while Maudie is annoyed with Arthur for his solo, dangerous venture.
