I'm writing a report essay for my 8th-grade class about "A Christmas Carol". For the report, I have to find two vices and one virtue of Scrooge. My two vices are Greed and Over Ambitious. For my virtue, I was wondering if change of heart is a virtue? Does that sound right?

Answer 1

Yes, I agree. Good one!

Answer 2

Also, I had one more idea as for a vice: maybe, unhappiness. Would that work as a vice too?

Answer 3

I think your original two vices are better.

Someone who is overly ambitious usually will push and shove to get what s/he wants, usually at the expense of others. That's more of a vice, I think, than unhappiness is!

Answer 4

Okay! Thanks, Writeacher!

Answer 5

You're welcome!
