Describe how Scrooge acted at his nephew’s Christmas party

At the Scrooge's nephew party all the Scrooge and some friends were gathered, some of them were talking about the old Scrooge and his frivolous and selfish personality. Fred, Scrooge's nephew, said he felt sorry for that old man who never left his office and who spent his free time in his bitter thoughts. Every Christmas Fred wanted his aunt to be at the Christmas party but every year the answer was no .

At the party, Scrooge's niece played the harp, reminding Scrooge his best memories. Then, the family and friends began to play with clothes and some other games, Scrooge was so touched by the warm and family environment that he joined the evening and even forgot why he was in that place; he felt part of something once again so he participated in the games and riddles although nobody could see or hear him. His joy was so great that he asked and begged the ghost to let him stay longer until the party ended

How is this different from his responses to the Cratchit’s celebration?  

In the celebration of the Cratchit family, Scrooge evidenced the essence of the union and family love, the difficult but happy life that the Cratchit family carry, but he also evidenced the sadness in the family because of the sick Tiny Tim, who finds increasingly difficult to walk and who does not seem to get better soon. When the ghost announces the death of the little Tiny Tim to Scrooge he gets sad and asks the ghost to save him, then he regrets the selfish though he used to have “ It does no matter who dies today or tomorrow, it would be better to have less population in the world.”

The difference between Scrooge's reaction to the Cratchit party and his nephew's party was the kind of feeling he experienced. During the visit to the Cratchit house, Scrooge was able to observe the life of one of his employees, of whom he knew nothing, his difficulties and his family, and he was also able to feel compassion for the sick and regret for his selfish thinking. During the visit to the Scrooge party, he could feel part of a family, feel the happiness and the Christmas spirit that flooded the house, his happiness was so great that he put aside his frivolous spirit to let the spirit of Christmas enter in his heart

Mrs. Cratchit and Scrooge’s niece each give their opinion of Scrooge because they don’t know that he’s actually in the room with them. If those characters could address Scrooge directly, do you think they would be as willing to voice their opinions?

During the celebration, Bob Cratchit makes a toast in honor of Scrooge, an act that his wife rejects outright, stating that Scrooge is the worst and that there would be no reason to toast for him, she says he is an evil and selfish man and that if she had him in front of her she would tell him a few things. These words, plus the words and opinions of Martha would never have left their mouths if they were in front of Scrooge because, although they do not like him, they know he has the power to leave nothing to his family if he wants, so they would be silent and I would keep their comments because of the fear.

In his Nephew's Christmas Party: Scrooge finds himself emphatic and emotionally moved by the situation and starts acting in a warmer, more loving way towards his Nephew's party and more emphatic in general. In this party Fred (his nephew) tells his wife he feels sorry for how scrooge distances himself from pleasure in life. They play music, games, and enjoy. Scrooge tries to join them but they cannot see him.

In contrast...

In Mrs. Cratchit’s celebration: Scrooge becomes amazed by how grateful the Cratchit family is and how happy they are just for being with each other, even though they are eating cheap food and the goose is cold because they didn't even have an oven in the house.

If this characters could address Scrooge directly: it's very likely they wouldn't tell him their honest opinion about him since he is perceived as a very cruel and powerful person and they would fear to be open and honest with him thinking he could take action against them.

i think it could possibly be b

there is no woman's sides

can bide the beating of so strong a passion

as love doth give my heart; no woman's heart

so big, to hold so much; they lack retention.

hope this !
