floating 71-91 responce

there are many interesting things in these chapters that symbollolize different things to coem in the book. for example how Huch and Tom go on an adventure. Adventures are also a main theme of the book. During their adventure they are floating down the river. floting down the river can symbolize not having controle. this is what i infer from this because the other day...well most of this year i have felt like i was floating, not able to controle or stop anything, so it is slightly ironic that we are now reading about it. this is how i realate to this. During this chapter they also live off the land and really fend for them selves, which can symblize growing or being independent or self relient, also somethings we have been doing this term. In the end of this chapter they loose the raft, it floats away and they are unable to retrieve it. this could mean that they still are not as responisble as they think and have learning to do. it could also just be a new chalenge presented to them and depending on how they deal with it will determin how mature and self relient they are. it could also mean they can gain more controle or their lives becaus what they were floating on is no longer presnt. this could also mean the opposite thing which is that they have no controle but it depends on whre you are coming from.
