Both of these texts describe the events that took place in the early life of Colin Powell, an American politician and retired general of the United States Army.

The texts describe the early job that Powell took when he was a teenager. This job was done after school, and consisted in working at a store owned by eastern European Jewish shopkeepers. However, each text treats this story differently.

In the case of the memoir, the story mainly focuses on the relationship between the Jewish immigrant and Powell, and how this led to experiences such as developing a friendship and learning some Yiddish. In the case of the biography, the focus is mainly on the ways in which the after-school job affected Powell's life as a teenager. The most likely reason for this is the fact that each author wanted to highlight a particular section of Powell's life in order to better support the theme of each text.

Answer:

among the many monuments to John F. Kennedy, perhaps the most striking is the Sixth Floor Museum in Dallas, in the building that was once the Texas School Book Depository. Every year, nearly 350,000 people visit the place where Lee Harvey Oswald waited on November 22, 1963, to shoot at the president’s motorcade. The museum itself is an oddity because of its physical connection to the event it illuminates; the most memorable—and eeriest—moment of a visit to the sixth floor is when you turn a corner and face the window through which Oswald fired his rifle as Kennedy’s open car snaked through Dealey Plaza’s broad spaces below. The windows are cluttered once again with cardboard boxes, just as they had been on that sunny afternoon when Oswald hid there.
