1. I would have to tried to stop the king but I would have probably tried to kill him or convince him to change his mind
2. I feel like the moral of the story is to follow your heart
3. the princess is some what like her father when because she is semi barbaric. "She loved him with an ardor that had enough of barbarism in it to make it exceedingly warm and strong." I feel it shows she is very barbaric she showed it by how she showed her love

1- if I were the princess I would have told him to pick the door with the new woman and then they would get divorced then get back with the princess ,because if I were her I wouldent want another woman with my man.
2- to be happy our world isn't like this & that we have freedom & equalism
3-i would describe the princess as mature,open hearted & different because I don't know if any other princess would pick a peseant as there love of there life or husband. the princess is supposed to be with a prince and the king didn't approve so it was another woman or death.

1. I would of had him killed so the princess and him can be together in the afterlife.
2. that the law can be solved in many ways.
3. I would describe the princes as semi barbaric,
"his eyes met hers as she sat there paler whiter than anyone in the vast ocean".

1.) I would have him choose the door with the lady in it, because I would rather him be happy and alive than dead.
2.) I think we can learn to trust our instincts and not let someone decide for you. Especially with your life.
3.) I would have say the princess cares for her lover but at the same time if she chose the tiger she would also be barbaric in a way because she wants him all to herself. " Would it be better for him to die at once, and go to wait for her in the blessed regions semi-barbaric futurity?".
3.) I don't believe it is a good use of justice because you also don't know if there innocent or not " The accused person was instantly punished if he found himself guilty, and, if innocent, he was rewarded on the spot, whether he liked it or not."
-Sean Deines, 3rd period
1.) If I was the princess I would have chosen the door with the young lady because I don't want to see the person that I loved get eaten by a tiger.
2.) What we can learn from this story is that violence is never the answer and that our (the united states) justice system isn't bad.
3.)I would say no that the kings justice prevents people from crime. In the story it says "on special occasions the tiger came out one of the doors". The words special occasion tells us the readers that this happens often.
1. I would of talked to the king before I started getting to know the prince.
2. you can learn that you should check before you do something.
3. I don't think its fair what the kings dose for his way of justice, because what if you really didn't do anything wrong and then you get it all blamed on you? " The accused person was instantly punished if he found himself guilty, and, if innocent, he was rewarded on the spot, whether he liked it or not."

1)I would have lead him the way into the bride and wait for my chance to kill the wife. Then ill bride someone to take the blame and lead them to get marry. Simple, right?
2) I learned that basing justice by luck doesn't work. If he killed 5 children and everyone knows he's the real deal... there will always be a chance for him to get away with it.
3) I would describe her as someone who will go to extensive steps to get was she wants. " But Gold, and the power of a woman's will, had brought the secret to the princess."
1.If I was the princess I would of let the lover go to the tiger cage because it says that she does not like her that he would be marrying so I rather watch him die and plus it is there only entertainment.
2. I learned from this story that I would not want to get caught doing a crime back when this story is based off of cause I have bad luck.
3.The kings sue of justice is not good cause if the criminal took a 50/50% chance that he was going to get caught or not he has a good change to not get killed because that is also just 2 doors so that is just a 50/50% chance also
3) ( continued) This shows that the princess would even pay ACTUALL gold to get whatever pleases her.
1.I would guide him to the lady because id rather see him happy than not see him at all.
2.We can learn that life is not fair for everyone.
3.No the king's use of justice is not a deterrent to crime because in some cases the crime gets rewarded
1. If I were the princess I would have made both of the doors women so either one that he picked was a women
2. we can learn from this story that being semi barbaric isn't a fun thing when you love the person someone else is being barbaric an savage to.
3. the kings justice system doesn't give a fair chance because no matter if the evidence exists or doesn't exist they don't pay attention to it at all and go by the choice of a person and if they have a wife then they have to leave them and go an marry someone else because its against the law.
1.i would send him to the lady because I would want him happy and alive rather than inside a tiger's stomach.
2.that violence doesn't solve anything
3. I would describe her as the jealous type because when she found out about the woman she started to think about sending him to the tiger." and the princess hated her. often had she seen, or imagined that she had seen, this far creature throwing glances were perceived, and even returned." so she is jealous that her lover is going to be with her if the princess didn't sent him to the tiger.
1. I would of chosen the door with the woman so people wont think the princess was cruel.
2. We can learn that committing crimes is not good.
3.I feel that the king's use of justice is right because when people watch the criminal get eaten by the tiger, it convinces them to not commit crimes or the same thing will happen to them.
"If he opened the one, there came out a hungry tiger, the fiercest and most cruel that could be procured."
1.If I were the princess I would enter the arena and fight the tiger with a weapon and the young by my side because you never know who might win.
2.That its a good thing we have judges to tell if were guilty or not instead of the 2 doors.
3.The princess is half barbaric. "But old, and power of the woman's will brought her the secret to the princess". This quote shows that the princess bought the secret of which door was the tiger or the lady and cared for the young to live.
-Alejandro Mata
1. If I was the princess, I would have him choose the door with the lady in it, I will rather him being alive and happy.
2. I think we can learn to trust in ourselves.
3. I will describe the princess as being semi-barbaric and being half civilized." his eyes meets hers as she sat there paler wither than anyone in the vast ocean".
- Jordi Ortiz
1. If I were the princess, I would have him choose the door with the lady. I would rather him be happy than dead in front of everyone. Although... the tiger sounds tempting.
2. We can learn that all things don't go unpunished. Even though it may be brutal, no things go unpunished.
3. The king's use of justice could be used to deter crime. "if he opened the one, there came out of it a hungry tiger," while the crowd witnesses a brutal murder of an accused, then it would put thoughts of not wanting to commit a crime into their heads.
Tara A.
1. I would lock the person in a room alone.
2.dont get to the kings princess.
3.i would describe the princess as nice and crazy in the story it say semi-barbaric " likes to see people happy but likes for people getting killed.
Elijaiah Bernad
1) If I where the princess I would have sent the guy to pick the door with the tiger, because if I truly loved him I wouldn't want him to pick the door with the girl to marry. Then I would be sad that the girl in the door isn't me and that I cant have him.
2) From this story we can learn that sometimes you can either trust someone to pick your faith or you can choose your own faith
3) I would describe the princess as a powerful person because in the story " but gold, and the power of a woman's will, had brought the secret to the princess"
1.) I would tell the boy which door to got through
2.) That if your not a prince then you can't date a kings daughter
3.)I would describe the princes as a semi-barbaric and half civilized " his eyes meets hers as she sat there paler wither than anymore in the vast ocean"
- Trey auguste
1.I would have chosen the door with the tiger behind it because jealousy would have destroyed my mind
2.stay in your own lane
3.she is very envious and savage "she hated the women who blushed and trembled behind the silent door".
1.If I was a princess, I would choose the door with the lady because I, Myself is a lover not a fighter and could never imagine a person getting eaten by a tiger because of me.
2. I learned that I loved the generation I was born in rather than choosing to be eaten by a tiger or forcing the love of my life to marry the person I hate.
3. I find her kind hearted, sweet, and generous to go found out which door is which so that he doesn't get eaten by the tiger.
1.) if I was the princess, I would have told the man to choose the door with the lady. yes, it would have pained me to see him with another woman, but it would have hurt even more to watch him die.
2.) I learned that the way our law is today could have improvements, but it is something to be grateful for we don't have to have the choice of life or death even if you are innocent.
3.) I found the princess to be two faced sure the story describes her to be beautiful but she is also semi-barbaric. "and her blood traveled from her barbaric ancestors" -Teagan summers
1- I would send him to the door that had the tiger
2- don't count on anyone else to decide for you
3-she is a somewhat mean person. When it says in the story "her soul at a white heat beneath the combined fires of despair and jealousy. It snows she is a bad person. By: Angel Ceballos
1. If I was the princess I would have chosen the door with the tiger because if he cant be with me then no one can.
2. I can learn from the story that you can stay in your own lane.
3. I would describe the princess as Semi Barbaric because it says "her blood traveled from her barbaric ancestors".
-Isaac Delgado
1.If I were the princess I would have chosen the door with the tiger so that no one else can have him.
2. don't let anyone else make your own decision

by: Johnathan Brantner
