They were not railway children to begin with. I don't suppose they had ever thought about railways except as a means of getting to Maskelyne and Cook's, the Pantomime, Zoological Gardens, and Madame Tussaud's. They were just ordinary suburban children, and they lived with their Father and Mother in an ordinary red-brick-fronted villa, with coloured glass in the front door, a tiled passage that was called a hall, a bath-room with hot and cold water, electric bells, French windows, and a good deal of white paint, and 'every modern convenience', as the house-agents say.


There were three of them. Roberta was the eldest. Of course, Mothers never have favourites, but if their Mother HAD had a favourite, it might have been Roberta. Next came Peter, who wished to be an Engineer when he grew up; and the youngest was Phyllis, who meant extremely well.


Mother did not spend all her time in paying dull calls to dull ladies, and sitting dully at home waiting for dull ladies to pay calls to her. She was almost always there, ready to play with the children, and read to them, and help them to do their home-lessons. Besides this she used to write stories for them while they were at school, and read them aloud after tea, and she always made up funny pieces of poetry for their birthdays and for other great occasions, such as the christening of the new kittens, or the refurnishing of the doll's house, or the time when they were getting over the mumps.


These three lucky children always had everything they needed: pretty clothes, good fires, a lovely nursery with heaps of toys, and a Mother Goose wall-paper. They had a kind and merry nursemaid, and a dog who was called James, and who was their very own. They also had a Father who was just perfect—never cross, never unjust, and always ready for a game—at least, if at any time he was NOT ready, he always had an excellent reason for it, and explained the reason to the children so interestingly and funnily that they felt sure he couldn't help himself.


You will think that they ought to have been very happy. And so they were, but they did not know HOW happy till the pretty life in the Red Villa was over and done with, and they had to live a very different life indeed.


The dreadful change came quite suddenly.

Answer:

Informational Response

How does the excerpt prepare the reader for the last line? Before hitting the reader with the terribly unfortunate news of "the dreadful change", the author describes the happy life that the three children-- Roberta, Peter, and Phyllis-- lived, which subtly indicated that the happy life they were used to was not destined to last. Yet the first warning came with the first sentence, in which the author states "They were not railway children to begin with," which indicates that eventually, they became railway children, despite the delightful description of their happy life which followed afterward. However, the bluntest warning came in the line before the last, where the author wrote "You will think that they ought to have been very happy. And so they were, but they did not know how happy till the pretty life in the Red Villa was over and done with, and they had to live a very different life indeed." By this point, the author has finished playing games and clearly states that the pretty life was "Over and done with," meaning it has come to an end. What details and descriptions prepare the reader for the change in tone and mood in that final line? Throughout the main course of the passage, the author adopts a cheerful and jolly mood, giving specific examples of the happy life the children lived, such as "An ordinary red-brick-fronted villa, with colored glass in the front door, a tiled passage that was called a hall, a bath-room with hot and cold water, electric bells, French windows, and a good deal of white paint, and 'every modern convenience', as the house-agents say." Or how they owned a dog whose name was James, or how they had a Mother Goose wallpaper. This can be used to infer that the childrens' luck will not last.
