This story by Frank Stockton is about the princess should choose weather her lover live or die.

The story is began with the king was accused of a crime, the king would assemble his court in an arena, an enclose space with two doors; one on the right, the other on the left. One door with hungry tiger and the other door was a lady behind.The princess fell in love with a young man but her father doesn’t like him so he put him in the prison.The princess has to choose the door for the young man that she love but one door that was the lady behind, the princess hate her. Should she give the man she loved to the women that she hated? Or should she let him open the tiger’s door? She has lost him, but who should have him? The lady or the tiger?

When I have read the story called The Lady or the Tiger? By Frank Stockton I used a lot of support strategies to understand story. First in almost every paragraph I try to picture in my mind what I have just read to help me remember what I read like for example in the story first paragraph it said “ The king would assemble his court in an arena, an enclose space with two doors; one on the right, the other on the left”. So I try to picture of this sentence.

Second, I underline or circle information or ideas in the text to help me remember it. For example in the third paragraph said that “the princess love with a young man but her father not like him so her father put him into prison” so I underline this information to help me remember it. This strategy helps me to remember the important information.
