Enders Game 6-8

Chapter 6
1)  The purpose of the Giant’s Game is to see if the player can beat a game that you can’t win by following instructions.  Ender should evaluate his success in good eyes because there was obviously no other way than to kill the giant in some way.  I do not think that Ender is a murderer because he would only kill someone if it is necessary.
Chapter 7
1)  Alai said “Salaam” to ender and the reason this moment is so important is because Alai was revealing his true believes to Ender and that word meant a lot to a Alai so it was a very big deal to say.
2)  Just living is basically just living your life without trying to be killed or trying to kill someone else.  I think it’s true that Ender has never done that because all his life he had to deal with his brother trying to kill him and kids at school all because he was a third born child.
3) Petra’s friendship is a hindrance to Ender because she is an outcast and therefore makes ender an outcast.  However Ender was most likely going to be an outcast anyway due the fact that he is younger than everyone in salamander.
Chapter 8
1)  Graff is reminding the people that Ender is the most intelligent and not necessarily the strongest physically but maybe he has the strongest mind.
2)  The significance about this quote is that he will teach Ender how to become a better soldier but Ender has to put effort into learning.
3)  Ender’s reaction to the attack is significant because it shows that he can work well under pressure.
4)  This scene represents that Ender is very afraid of becoming Peter and is afraid of betrayal
5)  The Game knows everything about Ender because the game has access to all of the files that the government has so therefore it know about his past.
