Why do you think the writer made the events occur on Maple Strees U.S.A.?

The aliens were told to find this street

The setting indicates that small towns are filled with superstitious people

The main characters live on this street

The setting suggests that the events could happen anywhere

2

All of the following events make the residents nervous and arouse their suspicions except...

one man's power mower stops working

Tommy's computer starts displaying strange messages

a screeching roar is heard overhead

Mrs. Brand's stove stops working

2

Right after the power failure, Charlie says, "A little power failure and right away we get all flustered and everything." Why is this statement significant?

It suggests that there will be a greater power failure in the future

It suggests that the residents will discover the reason behind the power failure

It is similar to what the creatures later say about the humans

It shows that Charlie will overcome his fear and save the town

2

When Tommy tells Mr. Brand not to go downtown, he says, "They don't want you to." To whom is he referring?

Aliens from outer space

The residents of Maple Street

The wives

His parents

2

Why do the residents start to believe Tommy's story?

They had read similar stories in books

Tommy always told the truth before

Fear overtakes their good sense

They think it is wise to consider every possibility

2

Which statement best describes a mob scene?

Individual voices are drowned out, and fear and anger take over

Everyone works together to reach an agreement

Individual voices are heard, and everyone tries to act together

No one person is important, and each individual is respected

2

The residents turn against Les Goodman because they...

like fifth columnists

don't like people with foreign cars

distrust anyone who is different

know the Goodman family owns a ham radio

2

When Charlie sees all of Maple Street lit by candles, he says, "Why, it's like goin' back into the dark ages or somethin'." Considering what happens in the play, what second meaning could this statement have?

The space creatures may take the townspeople to a different time period

The residents have let their fear, rather than their reason, take over

The creatures causing the power failure are from the Dark Ages

People used candles during the Dark Ages

2

Why does Charlie shoot Pete Van Horn?

He thinks Pete caused the power failure

He believes Pete is making ham radios

He has seen Pete gazing at the night sky

He sees a dark figure approaching and thinks it is the monster

2

At the end of the play, it turns out that the REAL monster is...

Tommy's mind

the fear and prejudice of human minds

Charlie's behavior

Steve's mind

2

At the opening of the play, the camera pans down to show Maple Street. At this point, the residents seem...

friendly with each other

like a violent mob

suspicious of one another

like aliens from outer space
