How does Kim Ha change from her life in wartime Vietnam to her experience in Alabama?​

English

Mumz [18]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Her life during the war in Vietnam and her new American life in Alabama taught her the differences between people and also the new way of life on the far side of the globe. She learned to read and write in English, speak in it, and also make friends in her school. Moreover, she also learned to accept the things that may not be the same as the ones in Vietnam, like the dried papayas instead of the real papaya she so wanted.

Explanation:

Thanhha Lai's verse novel <em>Inside Out and Back Again</em> revolves around the life of a young girl named Kim Ha and her life transitioning from war-torn Vietnam to American life in Alabama. The book is also part biographical for most of the events in Kim Ha's life were also experienced by the author herself.

When Saigon fell and the North Communist army began to take over the place, Ha and her family boarded the navy ship and escaped. Taken by a cowboy sponsor from Alabama, the whole family began a new life in the two-bedroom house paid for by the sponsor. And from then on, Ha's life began to change. She was deemed a stranger in her new school, their neighbors were rude, students picking on her which led to her eating lunch in the bathroom. But after her encounter with Miss Washington, her life began to change again. She took English classes, learned the proper use of the articles and the verb forms, learned self-defense from her brother Vu Lee, made new friends in Pam/Pem, and Steven/ SSs ì - Ti - Vâ n. She also began to adapt to the change in their living, their food, and most importantly, the loss of their navy father.

She also learned to accept the things in America that may not be to the mark like the ones back at home in Vietnam. She has also accepted the fact that her father will not return to them and that they will have to create a new permanent life in Alabama without him.

VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

Vaselesa [24]

Dear Mayor Levine,

We send our children to school so that they can learn the skills that they need to prepare them for the challenges of life.  In order to make this possible, we want them to learn in an environment that is safe and secure. We truly believe that this encourages them to learn and take part in school activities.

Lately, however, we are now troubled by reports that there many unruly students who cause trouble for the school and other students as well.  What is more alarming is that many of them are carrying concealed weapons and we are afraid that our children’s lives will be at risk.

 We urgently request that your office to do something about this problem. We are worried about the safety and welfare of our children is now at risk because of these recent developments.  We will be happy to work with you in creating a safe in environment for our children to learn in school.

Thank you and God Bless!

 

Very Truly Yours,

There is inequality and some foreigners might think that they are superior and commit crime .
