How are "Barrio Boy" and "No Gumption" similar

1 answer:

6 0

They are both written in first person, they share conflicts. First, in similarity, they lived in close time periods (both lived in 20th century) and were very poor. They went through a lot of struggle but in the end they achieved a lot. They both share similar conflicts. These are both memoir stories written in first person and talk about being young children.

In difference, No Gumption is about a boy who delivers newspapers to help support his family and to learn how to have a job. His mother wants him to have gumption so he won't end up the way his father was. In Barrio Boy, it is about an immigrant who goes to school and learns English. I don't think the story ever talks about him getting a job.

The country I would like to visit "Switzerland"

Ymorist [56]

SWITZERLAND

Switzerland is a mountainous country in Central Europe with a number of lakes, villages, and high peaks in the Alps. Its cities contain historic districts with attractions such as Bern's Zytglogge clock tower and Lucerne's wooden chapel bridge. Ski resorts and hiking trails are also well-known throughout the country. Banking and banking are significant industries, and Swiss watches and chocolate are world-renowned. Beautiful alpine scenery, high-end timepieces, and rich milk chocolate are all hallmarks of Switzerland. Switzerland is known for its beautiful towns and gorgeous train trips that take visitors across the country's natural surroundings. As a result, these are the main reasons I wish to travel to Switzerland.
