Reread lines 2040-2066, paying attention to the differences between the ways Mr. Dussel and Mrs. Frank communicate with Anne. What does the dialogue reveal about both characters?

Answer 1

Mr. Dussel speaks to Anne in an authoritative and angry way. Mrs. Frank, on the other hand, speaks to Anne in a more concerned tone.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mr. Dussel cannot get along with Anne, he feels disrespected for all the petulance and the ideas that the young anne expresses. Due to the age difference, the relationship between them is not the best and Mr. Dussel communicates with her in an aggressive and often angry way.

Mrs. Frank, is Anne's mother and is concerned about how her daughter's behavior will reflect on her adult life and people's perception of her. That's why he speaks to Anne in a softer way and with a strong tone of concern.
