1 How can you figure out a theme in a short story?
There are four method of finding the theme of a story. To estimate the theme, or to get a basic theme of the story look at the title. I will give example about ‘Three Little Pigs’. You can find out that this story is going to be about three little pigs. To find a more advanced theme of the story, then look at the main character. You look at the three pigs, which is the main character; we know that this story will be about pigs. You can look at the climax to find out the theme. Also you can look at the resolution to find it out.
2 What is the theme of "The Utterly Perfect Murder" and how does this theme relate to your own life.
I think the theme of “The Utterly Perfect Murder” is ‘Even though you get mad at your young friend, it’s only a memory.” The reason is, that at first he gets mad at Ralph but he gets satisfy at what Ralph looks like after 16 years. As I remember, I had met a bully that had almost eleven thousand won. We were also friends, too. However, I was mad at him most of the time. So one day, I decided to go the teacher and tell her all the truth. But right before I went to my teacher’s lounge I saw him. The very kid, who had went to a different school, he was just there. Standing in front of the teacher, staring at her. Then I realized that my BEST friend, who knew that I was getting bullied. So he told the teacher for me. However, I never met him again.
