These questions are designed to accompany Ray Bradbury's "A Sound of Thunder," and could be used to guide and focus readers or as an assessment of reading skill and knowledge of the elements of a story. Page one focuses on questions of fact, while the second page asks pupils to identify symbols, the mood, the theme, the point of view, and examples of foreshadowing.
