I am analysing the book called Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire. For now I will talk about the first ten chapters in the book. This is book number four before this book there was three other more and it is series of book and there are more books on Harry Potter. This is actually my first time reading this book and best part is that this also told me what happened in those previous books.
The first chapter is about “The Riddle House” and the second chapter is about “The Scar”. We should be able to realize the name "Riddle" as Voldemort's past name, as explained in the second book in the series. Most of all, we should know that Voldemort's murderous acts are deeply connected to Harry, specifically to Harry's scar. We know Harry is drawn into this evil plot simply by the fact that he is woken up by it. Also, we should note a complication with Wormtail in this beginning: although he claims to be Voldemort's trusted servant, he is not eager to kill Harry because in the last book Harry saved his life, and the servant has guilt cause of his loyalty of this character. It was mysterious but these first two chapter had a downfall too which was kinda dull because it reviews about past three books and there was no thriller or aggressive action to welcome the reader in excitement.
The third chapter is about “The Invitation” and the fourth chapter is about “Back to the Burrow”. In these chapters, contrast the real world that we recognize and the magical wizard world. To reach Hogwarts, one only must walk casually between two train platforms. In here, we also see the boundaries between those worlds. The introduction of the two families portrays each character humorously. The kind and curious Mr. Weasley does everything he can to make conversation with the Dursleys, who stare at him in frightened and confused. Harry watches everything with amusement, as does Ron. This face-off between extreme representations of the two worlds provides way that shows Harry's shift from one to the next. These two chapter was interesting because it spoke about the adventure and the difference of the non-magic world and the magic world. This chapter started to make me feel like reading it and find out, what goes throughout the book.
The fifth chapter is about “Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes” and the sixth chapter is about “The Portkey”. The relationships between the Weasley family members are not unusual. Sibling rivalry arises between Ron and Percy, who bosses him around. Because the Weasleys have seven children, many opportunities for these interactions present themselves. Molly Weasley berates her twins for wasting all their time creating practical jokes instead of studying, and the eldest two brothers, more advanced in their magic than the others, become the center of attention by harmlessly dueling with the family dinner tables. These chapters introduce new elements of the magical world. Traveling by Floo powder is nothing new for Harry. Harry's solution of the first Tri-Wizard Championship Task is through his use of the "Accio!" command. Bertha Jorkins is mentioned here by Percy, but since Harry cannot remember his dream, the name Bertha Jorkins means nothing to him. When all of the Hogwarts students lose their balance and fall after traveling by Portkey, the only one who remains standing is Cedric. This fact reflects his superb strength and determination, qualities that resurface throughout the story.
The seventh chapter talks about “Bagman and Crouch” and the eighth chapter is about “The Quidditch World Cup”. The appearances of Mr. Crouch and Ludo Bagman contrast approaches to dealing with challenges. Ludo is the friendlier person, and wears the robes of his glory days in honor of a event. He is an unreliable guy with mostly innocent intentions. Mr. Crouch addresse people and expects to be addresse himself politely, and is unwilling to unclose information that Ludo seems ready to discuss. Mr. Crouch is practice with keeping secrets. Bagman is unsubtle, though often illegal and annoying, are easy to spot. He appears to be everyone's friend but not loyal at all to anyone. Mr. Crouch acts coldly toward everybody and his lack of connection is get him in trouble. Neither is a model citizen, and together they represent the spectrum of wizarding power.
The chapter nine talks about “The Dark Mark” and chapter ten talks about “Mayhem at the Ministry”. In these chapters, we see a shadow of the mass fear caused by Voldemort's hold on the wizarding world. Although Harry is alarmed and confused by what is going on. The Dark Mark prepare Harry and his friends for what they ultimately are to expect if Voldemort returns to power. This fight against fear is one of the main themes of the novel, in the form of an ongoing fight against oppression of Dark Wizards. Hermione sticks to her guns more than ever, and she does it in a passionate but, fighting causes, helping people other than herself.
This book now catched my attention especially chapter nine at the ten, because of the fighting the conflict and them is so fearfully and devastating that I feel like getting in the book. At the being was so dull and in some parts I was lost because it says about the past books which I have not read. So far where I am at, i kinda like it but I don’t what will happen next and I cant tell the future cause my motivation might chance by reading the part, for now this is my analyse.
