Question #4 and #3

What is Curley’s motivation for going after Lennie? Use quotes to support your answer. 

Curley obviously wants to go after Lennie because he killed his wife. He is very upset and wants to shoot him.  Curley said " I'm gonna get him. I'm going for my shotgun." The other men on the farm cant help but to agree, Lennie caused more trouble than he is worth.





Why did Steinbeck choose to have Carlson, of all characters, be the last one to speak in the novel? What significance do his words have? OR What theme do his words support? “Now what the hell do ya suppose is eatin’ them two guys?”

I think that Carlson was the last to speak because because he shot the dog. I believe that the dog was a metaphor for Lennie so since Carlson shot the dog and he was going to shot Lennie. He said " Now what the hell do ya suppose is eatin' them two guys." showing that he didn't think people could care for anyone. He was always around when something died, he was mostly in the book where something was dying not when everything was fine.
