According to the author, Anne Frank’s words from almost eighty years ago are relevant to consider to our current situation because it is a very hard time right now, just like how it was back in the Holocaust. The author wants us to be hopeful and optimistic in these times, just like how Anne thought. I know this because in the text it states, “Don’t think of all the misery, but of the beauty that still remains” (8). This is a quote from Anne Frank, and it is good to think about during the hard times of lockdown. The author wants us to take this advice from Anne Frank, even though it was from almost eighty years ago, and use it in the present.

I think Anne Frank is like me because she held onto the hope of an optimistic future during the Holocaust, whereas I hold onto hope when there are rough times. I know this because in the text it states, “With astonishing grace and perplexing positivity, Anne held on to the hope of an optimistic future. During an experience unimaginable to most of us today, she still saw beauty and expressed gratitude for what she had” (8). I always tell myself things will get better during rough times, and I believe it. Also because she is a teen like me, and my group and we are all in lockdown.

According to the author Anne frank had to stay indoors in order to save lives. I think that this is similar to our situation because to save lives from covid 19 we have to stay inside.  Although Anne frank stayed indoors for nearly 2 years, we are quickly approaching out 1-year mark. The text explains, “…her survival literally depended on it.” (2).

Anne Frank is courageous for living every day thinking that she might be captured and killed by the Nazis and knew that she couldn't have a normal life, but on her 13th birthday she got a diary that kept her occupied and she wrote all her stories in it.

The main idea of the text is that the pandemic has brought about an even stronger sense of self awareness. I know this because in the text it states, “The report explains that the pandemic has brought about an even stronger sense of induvial.”(15)

Anne Frank is more like us because during this time we have felt claustrophobic, agitated, angry, and we don’t have the strength nor the patients to help others. We needed to learn how to manage emotions through these critical times. In the text it states, "Learning to manage their emotions was critical for their coexistence (5)."

According to the author Anne Frank's words are important to consider because  she is  an expert on lockdown and we can learn a lot from her experience. “I do think lockdown has been hard. And on some superficial[1] level, Anne Frank was an expert, so I think there’s a lot we can learn from her experience.” (4.)

#3 The author is relating Anne's experiences to ours'.  Anne was not allowed to go outside in fear of being taken away and killed. We, today, feel the same way even though hers' was worse. We must stay in our house, like how she stayed in the annex, and we hope the virus will soon pass like how Anne hoped the war would pass. Thousands of people are dying and counting and with Anne, millions died and its been scary for the both of us.

# data[].attributes.body
The author believes that our situation is equal to that of Anne’s because since we stayed at home and hid from the coronavirus to save our lives and others, and Anne and her family stayed in an annex hiding from the Nazis to save their lives, our condition is common to Anne’s because both of us had to stay home to protect others and ourselves, but her situation was more violent. I understand this because it says in the document, “We stayed indoors to literally save lives, whether it was our own or those of others" (3). The author also says that Anne Frank is a lockdown specialist, so we can learn from her.

Some main ideas in the text are: you can make changes to improve the world, and to stay optimistic during rough times. This is shown in the text as it states, “A lot has gone wrong—everywhere. Yes, it’s a time to reflect, but it’s also a time to act. It’s an opportunity to make changes and improvements,” it also states, “Don’t think of all the misery, but of the beauty that still remains”(7,8). All in all, the main idea of the text is to act on tough times and stay optimistic during them.

The quote that stood out to me the from Anne’s diary is, “Whoever is happy will make others happy,” (3). This quote stood out to me because when I was reading, I stopped to think about this and think about my surroundings and I found this quote to really speak to me. When someone around me is happy it instantly makes me happy as well and sometimes the company of people makes me happy.

The main idea of the text is that Anne franks situation and our similar in many ways to ours. For example, in the text it states that “She was running from the Nazis and we are running from a virus”. I think we can also relate because she had to stay indoors and hide from Nazis and we are hiding from Covid-19 and the uncertainty that comes with that position.

She is like us because we both are kids, and eighty years ago she hided from Nazis while we hide from COVID19.

According to the author, Anne Frank’s words almost eighty years ago, relevant to consider during out current situation, because eighty years ago Anne Frank was staying at home and hiding from Nazis, so they will not kill her. Now we are indoors so we do not get the virus. And second paragraph states that " The risk of going outside for her was certainly much greater than it was for you and me during lock-down."

# data[].attributes.body

The author got Anne Frank's quotes from her diary that Anne Frank received on her 13th birthday, I know this because Mrs. Franson showed me a video about Anne Frank about a week ago.

Anne Frank found light amid darkness because of her diary and everything she wrote in it. It helped her to cope with everything that was happening during these crucial times and helped her to stay true to herself and everyone around her. In the text it states, "In her diary, she expresses her frustration. Not only did she have a lot of built-up energy, with no outlet through which to release it... (5)"

The author got her words from Anne Frank’s diary. It obvious that she got them form here because she quoted Anne Frank. After she would use a quite from Anne frank she would add “-Anne Frank”. For an example, the first quote she used was, “Feelings can’t be ignored, no matter how unjust or ungrateful they seem.” – Anne Frank. Also, the “Anne Frank” is a link to her quotes.

Anne found light amid darkness by using what she saw around her and pointing out the beauty in it rather than darkness. The article supports this by using Anne’s quote, “I’ve found that there is always some beauty left — in nature, sunshine, freedom, in yourself; these can all help you…As long as this exists, this sunshine and this cloudless sky, and as long as I can enjoy it, how can I be sad?” (20). When Anne looks at the beauty in things it shows her happiness or ‘light’ that can be found within darkness.

The author quotes from Anne Frank came from her diary, in the text it states “In her diary she expresses her frustration. Not only did she have a lot of built-up energy, with no outlet through which to release it; the same was true for seven other people.”(13) This explains to me that what the author explains in the text came directly from her personal diary. This also explains that she was in a lot of pain emotionally and physically.

There are the two ways me and Anne Franks are alike because we both had our life place on hold for our own safety and had to stay indoor to literally save our own lives. According to the text, “Her life was placed on hold because her survival depended on it … We stayed indoors to literally lives…”(2) These are the two ways me and Anne Frank is like me because we both had put life place on hold for our own safety and had to stay indoor literally save our own lives.

# data[].attributes.body
The main idea of the text is to not make our situation equal to Anne Frank’s situation but to learn about the shared similarities that we both had to endure during our difficult times. According to the text it says, “So, whilst I do not mean to equate Anne Frank’s experience to what we have lied through this year (by no length of the imagination), I do think lockdown has been hard. And on some superficial’ level, Anne Frank’s was an expert, so I think there’s a lot we can learn from her experience.”

Anne Frank’s darkness was having to live everyday knowing that she could be caught by the Nazi’s and be killed. Although, she was able to find light within her diary. Her diary possibly was an escape from darkness she had to endure every day.

The author does not believe that our situation is equal to Anne’s because, they say that Anne was in a life-threatening time and couldn’t go outside if she wanted to live. We are just staying inside to not get a sickness which is not as bad as the holocaust. He evidence to support this claim is: “Her life was placed on hold because her survival literally depended on it. The risk of going outside for her was certainly much greater than it was for you and me during lock-down; the risk of death much more imminent.” That is why the author believes that our situation isn’t equal to Anne’s situation.

# data[].attributes.body
The reason why Anne Frank’s words are relevant is because, like she was, we are stuck inside home for our safety. She then, wrote about how hard it was to stay inside, like this example, “We all live with the objective of being happy; our lives are all different and yet the same.” What this means is that we are all not so different and we are all going through rough times. That is why Anne Frank’s words from almost 8- years ago are relevant now.

# data[].attributes.body
She was like me because, like me during this epidemic I try to make people feel better and be optimistic and positive, that’s exactly how she felt when she was in hiding from the Nazi’s. The evidence to prove that is when she says: “Where there’s hope, there’s life. It fills us with fresh courage and makes us strong again.” That is saying that she was trying to inspire people to be positive, that’s how she is like me.

# data[].attributes.body
The main idea of the text is to show how we can relate to the situation Anne Frank was in when she went into hiding and how she was really good at not being found. The main evidence for this is when the author says:” So, whilst I don’t mean to equate Anne Frank’s experience to what we’ve lived through this year (by no length of the imagination), I do think lockdown has been hard. And on some superficial² level, Anne Frank was an expert, so I think there’s a lot we can learn from her experience.“ That is how I found the Main idea of the text with evidence from the text.

Anne Frank is like me because she had to deal with the hardships of hiding from something. In her case it was the Nazis for us it was a virus. I think we could relate in an emotional level because I feel being hidden from a virus or the Nazis there is a level of anxiety that you have from that.

# data[].attributes.body
Anne found light amid the darkness by writing in her notebook I believe that she was comforted by this because she had something to distract her from the darkness. So I feel like she found light amid the darkness by making the best of the hard times.
