PART 1
1. Read & Highlight Scrooge and Fred's thoughts/feelings about Christmas. I have given you one example!
Scrooge - What else can I be when I live in such a word of fools as this? Merry Christmas! Out with Merry Christmas! Whatâs Christmas to you but a time for paying bills without money, a time for finding yourself a year older and not an hour richer. If I could work my will, every idiot who goes about with âMerry Christmasâ on his lips should be boiled with his own pudding and buried with a stake of holly through his heart.
Fred - There are many things from which I might have derived good by which I have not profited, I daresay, Christmas among the rest. And though it has never put a scrap of gold in my pocket, I believe that it has done me good and will do me good, and I say, God bless it.

PART 2
3. Read & Highlight Scrooge and the Gentleman Visitor's thoughts/feelings about the poor & charity. I have given you one example!
Gentleman Visitor - At this festive season of the year...
Scrooge - Itâs winter and cold.
Gentleman Visitor - Yes...yes, it is, and the more reason for my visit. At this time of the year it is more than usually desirable to make some slight provision for the poor and destitute who suffer greatly from the cold. Many thousands are in want of common necessaries; hundreds of thousands are in want of common comforts, sir.
Scrooge - Are there no prisons?
Gentleman Visitor - Many, sir.
Scrooge - And the workhouse? Is it still in operation?
Gentleman Visitor - It is; still, I wish I could say it was not.
Scrooge - The poor law is still in full vigor then?
Gentleman Visitor - Yes, sir.
Scrooge - Iâm glad to hear it. From what you said, I was afraid someone had stopped its operation.
Gentleman Visitor - Under the impression that they scarcely furnish Christian cheer of mind or body to the multitude, a few of us are endeavoring to raise a fund to buy the poor some meat and drink and means of warmth. We choose this time because it is the time, of all others, when it is keenly felt and abundance rejoices. May I put you down for something, sir?
Scrooge - Nothing.
Gentleman Visitor - You wish to be anonymous?
Scrooge - I wish to be left alone. Since you ask me what I wish , sir, that is my answer. I donât make merry myself at Christmas, and I canât afford to make idle people merry. I help support the establishments I have mentioned...they cost enough...and those who are poorly off must go there.
Gentleman Visitor - Many canât go there, and many would rather die.
Scrooge - If they would rather die, they had better do it and decrease the surplus population. That is not my affair. My business is. It occupies me constantly.
