"He had tears in his eyes," Andy remembers. "He said that adult fans were swearing at the Mexican players and that it wasn't fair. He was really hurting. He said, 'Is there any way you can help?' I told him I'd try." The author's purpose in this excerpt is to prompt an emotion in the reader. Convey details about the characters. Encourage the reader to do something.

along with what you read in Chapter 12, explain why you think the train ride is particularly difficult for Shmuel to talk about.
FrozenT [24]
When Shmuel recounts his journey on the train, he describes a horrible situation, which was completely different from Bruno's experience on his train ride. Shmuel tells Bruno that the cars were overcrowded to the point that passengers could not breathe. In contrast, Bruno recalls that there were two trains at the station when he left Berlin and naively believes that Shmuel boarded the wrong train. Even though Shmuel tries to explain to Bruno that the train he boarded had no doors, Bruno contradicts Shmuel and does not understand why Shmuel had such a negative experience on the train. Bruno and Shmuel's different perspectives are significant because they depict the contrast between those in authority (Nazis) and those in subjugation (Jews). Since Bruno is a German Nazi, he is treated with respect and enjoys a relatively comfortable train ride. In contrast, the Jewish prisoners, like Shmuel, were subjected to the horrible conditions of the tightly packed cattle cars that took them to concentration camps. Their differing perspectives further illuminates the difference in their backgrounds and situations. Despite Bruno and Shmuel's drastically different circumstances, the two boys become close friends.

Why do Americans love equality? Should we? Can the desire for it ever be satisfied?
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

Americans crave equaity so much because they're deprived of it everyday. Sometimes people can be cruel to those who aren't doing anything wrong. Not everyone thinks the same way in this country, everyone has different opinions and views on different races, those who are LGBTQ+, and so much more.  It would be impossible for people to be satisfied with equality in America because no one thinks the same.
