George told Lennie to jump into the water, and Lennie who could not swim nearly drowned. George went in to save him and Lennie still thanked him even though he was the one that told him to jump in the first place.
George gets angry at Lennie mainly out of frustration and a sense of responsibility for having to constantly watch over him. Lennie's actions often unintentionally cause problems or put them in difficult situations, leading George to feel overwhelmed and upset. However, George's anger is also motivated by his love for Lennie and a desire to protect him from harm.
At the end of the book Lennie once again returns to the brush down by the Salinas River. That was where the book started and where George and Lennie stayed before they went to the Ranch, where they cooked beans and talked about their own plot of land for the first time.
George and Lennie had lost their previous job because Lennie was going to get blamed for raping a girl that lived in the farm in Weeds. You see the lady was wearing silky dress and since Lennie loved to touch soft things he wanted to touch the dress and keep it. When Lennie touched the dress and the girl screamed. Lennie got really scared that George had to hit him with a fence post. The girl claimed that she got raped and that is when George and Lennie hid in a irrigation ditch and ran away that same night.
Because Steinbeck didn't write it that way. You'll need to come up with your own reason for your homework, but I advise you to consider this: how long do you think it would it be before Lennie did something else to get the pair in trouble again; and what would YOU have done in George's place?
curley thinks lennie's smiling at how small he is.Curley thinks that Lennie is smiling because of everyone else is bullying him after him and Slim had a disagreement. E.g after Candy got involved in the bullying by saying, "glove fulla vaseline" as an attack towards Curley.
The heartbroken George starts to struggle with the image of the farm at this point because deep inside, George had known that this dream is shattered without Lennie, it would never come true and so he can't picture it as vividly as he once could have.
Because, everyone enjoys a good laugh once and awhile.
George is simply after the American Dream. Freedom and being able to become your own boss and have your own land is what he desires. Lennie is set on tending the rabbits, and defending them from the cats that dare threaten them. Lennie is dependent on George, so what George wants, Lennie wants too, to keep George happy. Candy doesn't want to become useless on the ranch, because he knows that once he can't work, he won't be able to gain work because he is handicapped and no one will want to hire him. On the ranch, he can do odd jobs, like washing dishes etc, where he'll still be useful. Crooks, strangely it would seem, wants to work for George for free. He'd still be doing slave labour like he does on the ranch and without money. But on George's land, Crooks would get something he could never get on the ranch; respect.
Me, I am not joking my name is Clarie Alveraz check me out. Once again not lying!
He is there working on the ranch as a line-skinner, making probably $50 just like George and Lennie, but it is likely that he spends his money on drinks once a month when he goes into town or he goes in a "cat house" and raise some hell.
when ever it wants!!! no just joking once every 2 days
Candy thinks that Curley plans to shoot Lennie once he finds him, as revenge for Lennie accidentally killing Curley's wife. Candy knows that Curley is angry and vengeful, and he fears for Lennie's safety.
