The Rainy Season

Christian Studies
















Watch this video starting at 15:27. Because I won't be teaching you until next Monday, you have until then to watch the entire video. It will be an hour of your time (but well worth it, I think).
Please ensure you come to class on Monday and complete the following questions.

1. What did D. P. Thomson ask Eric to do? Why? Why did Eric call it "the bravest thing he did in his life"?
2. How does the movie Chariots of Fire differ from the actual events surrounding Eric in qualifying for the 1924 Olympics?
3. How old was Eric when he won the gold medal for the 400m?
4. What did Eric do in Tientsen at the Anglo-Chinese College?
5. What was the problem of getting Florence to be his wife?
6. Why did Florence leave to Toronto?
7. What did Eric do in Siaochang?
8. Why did Eric move to Weihsien?
9. How did Eric die?
10. His daughter, Patricia, reflects on why Eric was not allowed by God to leave China. Why does she believe Eric needed to stay in the prison camp?

English 
Answer the questions for chapters 5 and 6 (so you will have to read the chapters necessarily).
