wild-looking/give a thought
Hi
Some people were observing a woman:
They found her, dry-eyed but pale and wild-looking
‘getting out her cooking things as though she ’d gone
crazy’, Ella Flack reported. No, she said, Sydney was just
the same; but she had to give a thought to Wesley, too,
hadn’t she? How was he going to live through the next
week with no. food in the house?
I have 3 short questions:
1. What other word can be used instead of "wild-looking"?
2. Does it mean she didn't want to cook and behaved like she was crazy?
3. I think "give a thought to somebody" means "to think of somebody", right?
Thanks

Re: wild-looking/give a thought
Not a teacher
This may help some:
1.Looking unable to control her emotions.
2. It means: "getting ot her cooking things in a mad, disordely manner".
3. She also had to take Wesley into consideration.

Re: wild-looking/give a thought
So numer two means that she cooked like she was mad? It doesn't mean that she didn't want to cook?
