1. he thinks that people will laugh at him because all both of his legs are missing.
2. because it catches the readers attention and it makes the story seem suspenceful and it makes it seem like people are in danger.
3. the reason why the pilot is afraid of  landing in the water is because he happened to go to sleep during white periods. he was going to fall asleep while in he clouds.
4. i think he probably landed in a place where he got badly injured like he landed on the highway and thats why he ended up in the hospital.
5. because it gives the readers a better understanding of the story

Friday, March 13, 2009

3.) i would summrize the last part of the story by saying that u can tell that she really didnt care about the dead president even though she really wanted to feel sorry for him she just couldnt fee sorry for him no matter how hard she tried.
3. elena is more worried about her love eugene then she is worried about the death of president kennedy
wat wat wat wat awt

4. The column on page 568 reflects on the author's  heritage,traditions and attitudes when she says her parents use to talk about how they wanted to go back to there country and she wanted to learn spanish.
2.)they are both alike because they both are girls they are friends they go to the same school they live near each other they were both upset about the death of the presidents death.

3.I  would summarize the end of the story by saying that Elena is in love with Eugene. She is also worried about President Kennedy's dealth
6. it is ironic because while they are studying American History that day American History was happening that day.
i did not read this story and i don't know any of the answer's and I'm not reading it because its too long to read and class will be over soon and i wont be able to finish any of the questions
2. Elena and Eugene are like because they both wanted to study the day he died
4. Her mom and dad will always talk about going back to Puerto Rico. They did not like living in Paterson and want to move back to the suburbs
2. They both like to read and secretly like each other. Eugene is shy and Elena does most of the talking during their conversations. They are both smart but, Eugene is in honor classes and she is not. She likes to watch him from that apartment building. She thinks he is very unique.                    3. I would summarize the end of the page by saying that she stating to get feelings for Eugene. They starting to make a special bond.
1. it also seems like its about the dead presidents and about wats goin on in tha world
2. They are alike because they live in the same neighborhood,they go to the same school and they both are apart of the same race.
1. to me it seems like there are two little girls that are from spanish speaking countries

question 3

because shw wasnt worried about the president dying but she was worried about visiting eugene!!!

American History

2. Some ways that Elena and Eugene are alike is they live in the same area,they both are smart and like school. Ways they are different is there nationality.

3.I would summarize the end of 567 by saying Elena believes she is in love. Her mother says that she is acting infatuated. Elena really likes Eugene but she hardly sees him. She would look for him in all her classes. She was scared Eugene was going to reject her but he was just shy. When he came up too Elena he was kind of shy. They would walk home together and really liked each other.

4. This column reflects these things by the way she talked about when she listened to her parents. They talked about how they didn't like Jersey and wanted too move back too Puerto Rico. She would listen to her parents dreams which was like fairy tales.

5. What is significant about Mr. Depalma is he is upset. You could tell he did cared about the president.He also has a strong opinion about the situation.

6.It was weird because the kids was studying his death on the day he died.

7.He showed sympathy and he seem sad.The author feels strongly against prejudice and discrimination. She believe everyone in the world is equal,it doesn't matter the skin color or nationality.So the author express that throughout his/or her writing.
I think the story is going to be about American History dead Presidents and somebody's childhood.
4. her dad and mom will always conversate about go back to pueterico. they didnt like living in paterson and wanted to move back to the suberbs.
3. she didn't care about the president but about visting Eugene
1. I think this story is about important events that happend in the past.
2. They are both honor students. the difference is that elena is from puerto rican and eugene is white.
3.Elena is more worried about eugene than the president Kennedy's  death.
4. Her mother and father wanted to move back to puerto rico, because they were unhappy in paterson. plus she only been in puerto rico once in her life, and she always wanted better than her parents.
5. He seem really mean and heartless but deep inside he showed emotion when the president died.
6. They wanted to learn more about kennedy. the death was a big part of american history
7.He showed sympathy and he seem sad.

question 3
Elena was so in love love and did not even care about the president death.
3. I would say that she really wasnt worried about the presidents death, she was mostly about her wanting to go and see eugene.

          2. They are Straight A students,they both read books and they go to the same school. They are different because they have different first languages.

          3. I would summarize the story by saying that the two children became real close,and they grew to like each other and they spend a lot of time together. Also she started to like him more than a friendship level.

          4. The column on 568 reflects the heritage,traditions and attitudes of the writer because it tells me that he was either spanish or mexican,and it also tells me that the writers attitude was kind of like blank.

          5. The significant of his behavior was disruptive,rude and annoying. His behavior shows that he's the type of person that just doesn't care,and is always going to be in trouble.
           
          6. Elena and Eugene choose American History because they wanted to learn about the history of their country so they can learn more about it.

          7. Anger and frustration is revealed through the writers attitude toward discrimination and prejudice,because he is upset.
