Read this story and then answer the questions.

"I'll be back with the doctor in three days at the latest. I've left you enough wood for three days and you have plenty of food." Garth looked at his sister anxiously. Suddenly, he leaned forward and brushed her cheek lightly with his thick yellow beard. "I hate to leave you alone," he said gently, "but I guess it's Derek's only chance." "Of course, you must go," replied Dorette. "It's Derek's only chance." Pale and thin, she looked weak, but she was born in the wilderness and possessed A SPIRIT OF STEEL. She said quietly, "There'll be nothing for me to do--nothing but wait." "Only, look after yourself and keep the stove going," said Garth. "I'll do it. And you - if you meet Martin Dufour...." said Dorette. Rage suddenly blazed in her brother's eyes. The barrel of his rifle gleamed as he gripped it. "If I meet Martin Dufour, it will be the end of him, or me." He turned without saying another word and headed down the forest trail on his way to Mandore.
