Here is the solution to points 1, 2, 4, and 5 in English:

### 1. **Who is the narrator? Whose point of view do you share?**

- The narrator is **Victor Frankenstein**, and the point of view is **first-person**, as the story is told from his perspective. The reader shares his personal experiences and emotional reactions to the events.

### 2. **Write the details from the description of the creature:**

- **Eyes**: Watery, almost the same color as the sockets.

- **Skin**: Yellow, barely covers the muscles and arteries beneath.

- **Eye sockets**: Dun-white, contrasting with the watery eyes.

- **Hair**: Lustrous black, flowing.

- **Teeth**: White and pearly.

- **Motion**: Convulsive movements after being brought to life.

- **Lips**: Black, straight.

These details give a grotesque image of the creature, suggesting something unnatural and horrifying.

### 4. **Frankenstein has tried to create a beautiful creature but is upset when the monster ends up being grotesque. What might this unexpected result symbolize?**

- This unexpected result may symbolize the **danger of unchecked ambition** and the **unintended consequences** of attempting to control or surpass nature. It also suggests that **appearances can deceive**, as Frankenstein's initial hopes for beauty and success result in horror and regret. The grotesque creature could represent the consequences of human hubris and the failure of trying to play God.

### 5. **Identify the Gothic features of the text.**

- **Dark and foreboding setting**: The scene takes place on a "dreary night of November," with rain and dim light, creating a sense of gloom.

- **Supernatural elements**: The creation of life from death is central to the story, which involves defying natural laws.

- **Monstrous creature**: The creature, described as hideous and terrifying, is a key element of Gothic literature, representing the unknown and the unnatural.

- **Emotional intensity**: Frankenstein’s horror, regret, and terror are emphasized, contributing to the Gothic atmosphere of emotional extremes.

- **Isolation**: Frankenstein works in isolation, highlighting the loneliness and alienation often found in Gothic texts.

These points reinforce the Gothic nature of **Frankenstein**, focusing on themes of horror, nature versus science, and the consequences of human ambition.
