Answer:
Yes, I have. The first time that I went overseas was to Japan in the summer of 2011 for a vacation with my family and friends. When we got off the plane, it took us awhile to figure out what to do because there were many people speaking Japanese around us. It made me feel uneasy because none of them spoke English, which meant that I couldn't understand any of their conversations or directions. They also wore clothing that looked very different from anything that I had seen before, like kimonos and hakama pants. Also, they ate differently than I did. We could not find any food that resembled American fast food restaurants, but instead found more traditional Japanese foods such as sushi and teriyaki. After several days, I finally started to adjust to the new environment. As the days passed by, I realized that this country was just like America in many ways. For example, I quickly learned how to get around Tokyo without looking lost.

Answer:
Both the trees and Esperanza have "skinny necks and pointy elbows", and both don´t belong where they are. The trees should grow in nature, not in a city. Similarly, Esperanza feels like she doesn´t belong in the neighborhood. Furthermore, the resilience of those trees that "grew despite concrete" symbolizes Esperanza´s resilience to persevere notwithstanding the impediments imposed by her being poor.
Explanation:
The question refers to the section Four Skinny Trees from the book “The House on Mango Street,” by Sandra Cisneros.
There, the four trees found in her front yard symbolize Esperanza´s experience of feeling like an outsider and wanting to reach out for something else.
Answer:
3$
Explanation:
For the first vendor, the pickles cost $5 per quart and since there are 4 quarts in a gallon, 5$ x 4 quarts= $20 per gallon.
For the second vendor, the pickles cost 19$ per gallon.
You want to buy 3 gallons of pickles. If you were to buy from the first vendor, then it would be 20$ x 3 gallons= 60$
The second vendor would be 19$ x 3 gallons= 57$
60$ - 57$= 3$ which is what you save in total
