"The man who was almost a man" speaks of Dave, who had conflicts with gaining recognition and respect, because he was young. He wanted to grow up and become a man. For this he bought a weapon, thinking that it would make him grow as a man. Seeking power, he buys this weapon, to feel powerful, unstoppable. All these conflicts of the dave age led him to make some bad decisions. The story well specifies this when he accidentally shoots a mule, and he cannot sustain the excuse he made up for it, and when he decides to take a train and go to a city where he would be able to man up.
You walk into the school wondering what you should eat as a snack. You walk past many healthy and unhealthy snacks. But now you have to choose of what kind you want. Students attending schools with vending machines face this problem everyday: healthy or unhealthy. In my opinion, schools should offer healthy vending machines because students would have a healthier snack choice, it would lower obesity rates, and students would be able to realize of what is a better choice of food for their body.
