I Am Malala Chapter 16

The peace treaty signed at the beginning of chapter 15 imposed sharia. Sharia is 

• when all aspects of life are dictated by religious judges.
• when all people have to stay indoors from sundown to sunup. 
• when people are not allowed to attend school, movies, or any entertaining event. 

When asked how Malala was wise beyond her years, Malala's father said, "Circumstances have made her so." This means

• The hard times Malala has faced have made her grow up quickly
• Since she can't go to school she has had to learn at home. 
• Interviews make people seem older

When the Talib stopped Malala's mother in the market he told her he could beat her because

• She was a woman
• She was not wearing the proper burqa
• She was not with a man

Malala's father was watching a video where a teenage girl was being beaten by the Taliban. The reason she was being beaten was that she

• had come out of the house with a man that was not her husband
• was not wearing the proper burqa
• had been caught stealing bread for her family

Why was the Malala's family leaving her home at the end of chapter 16?

• Her hometown of Mingora was going to be in the middle of the path of fighting between the Taliban and the government
• Her cousins wanted her to visit them in the village since the Taliban was chasing Malala
• They did not want to stay in the city. It was getting too populated.

When the family was trying to leave, what was Malala's brother most worried about?

• his chicks
• his goats
• his toys

Why did Malala cause a shock when she went to school in the mountains with her cousin?

• They had seen her on the news
• She did not cover her face and spoke freely in class
• her cousin had told the class about the famous Malala and they were surprised she was in their school

What happened on Malala's birthday?

• she received a new book on famous women who fought for their rights
• nothing, everyone forgot
• she got to see her best friend

How does the Theodore Roosevelt quote we have been talking about in class apply to Malala?

• Even though she did not have a lot, she used her voice to make a difference. 
• She knew that one day she too could become a female Prime Minister of Pakistan

If you hear of an impending storm, you should

• take cover right away
• go outside and play
