"Write a short TDA response (1 complete paragraph) analyzing how the author uses questioning techniques between Anne and her parents to emphasize her growing struggle with identity. Consider the kinds of questions Anne is asking and how she answers them. Use evidence from the text to support your response."

This question is asking you to decide how the questions that Anne and her parents are asking each other (in Act 1, Scene 4) show that she is struggling to figure out what kind of person she is going to be. Use direct quotes and explanations to support your opinions.

You can restate the question and answer directly (your opinion) as one sentence. Then, support your opinion using a quote & explanation. Repeat with a different quote & explanation. Repeat with a third quote & explanation. Finally, clearly explain how this definitely supports your opinion & restate your opinion.
