The first reason that I think Newt and Catherine should not be together is

Because he writes for this popular magazine, he enjoys the attention of many readers who look to him to provide them with the latest news from the scientific community.

The setting is one of the most important aspects of this novel. The glade and the maze is where everything happens. It is where the teenage boys and girl are sent to find a way out. The Glade is a meadow the size of several football fields surrounded by gigantic walls that fall in the middle of a vast maze formed by walls of ivy. The weather is always perfect in the glade. It never rains, never snows, never gets too hot or too cold. If it weren't for the little fact that they were torn apart from
independent because they all have personalized amour, which may make the audience feel a little uneasy as they may feel the marines are risk takers. The marines’ confident, strong dialogue runs in contrast to the caring manor in which Hick’s says to Newt ‘Don’t touch that honey, its dangerous’, this gives Hicks a depth not shared by his fellow marines, making them expendable.

I like Newt because he does not feel sorry for himself, and treats everything matter-of-factly and as if it is obvious, "Isn't everybody [self-taught]?" Newt appears to be a person who does not care what everyone else thinks and always strives to be an individual. I think that the satire alone in Cat's Cradle is enough to encourage
