a. How the US takeover affects the Filipino people.
Explanation:
Both of the comments of Mark Twain and Theodore Roosevelt are concerning the American government's power over the island of Philippines. Though said in two different years, they both comment on the people of Philippines' conditions, but in a contrasting manner.
Twain talks about the negative impact of the United States' control of the island while Roosevelt's comments points out the positive outcome of the takeover. He said that the people of Philippines should be happy and appreciate the American's coming for they are now enjoying freedom which they had previously never had.
Thus, the main difference between the two comments is how the US takeover affects the Filipino people.
Personally I didnt really get any validation growing up and had to do things mostly on my own if you arent hand held then you pick things up usefull things that help you progress further in the human world. yeah you may be sad from time to time but hey at least you have more skills than most.
