A.
1) A house on a cliff located by the sea.
2) The old woman’s son named Antoine Saverini.
3) Sardinia, a place for people to take refuge.
4) Sausage.
5) 3rd person.

B.
6) The title of story is fitting because the old woman wanted to take revenge on the person who killed her son. But she was an old woman so she could not take revenge herself, because she did not have the strength. She used the dog to murder and get revenge for her. This worked effectively because she trained her dog for months.

C.
7) Maybe the police would have caught the old woman. Also the old woman could have felt bad for her doings, because revenge doesn’t bring happiness. This could have caused the old woman to become crazy. The dog could have killed the old woman because of the miss-treatment.

D.
8) I thought it was weird how the old woman went to church twice during this story and yet she murdered someone. Maybe she felt that her actions where justified. I like how the writer made the dog notice that his or her master was dead. The dog howled with the old woman’s cries. It seemed like they both had pains from this.
