Read the excerpt from Heart of a Samurai. As the boats rounded the tip of the island, the fishermen gasped. An enormous bird wit

h many huge, white wings sat upon the water. But, no, it was a ship, bristling with masts, slung with dozens of sails, and alive with movement. Many strange foreigners scurried about on deck or crawled up the ropes that were strung all over the vessel like spiderwebs. What does the phrase "the fishermen gasped" help readers infer? The fishermen have never seen a large sailing ship before. The fishermen are surprised to see Japanese sailors. The fishermen cannot believe that they have been rescued. The fishermen recognize the sailing ship as one from home.

8 and 9 year old girls are getting married to 30 year old men for protection.
frez [133]

Answer:

This story made me feel sad :(

However, the purpose of this story is to reveal the cruelty of our world and the protectors who help and protect children.

The quote, "Nobody wants to be told what they're doing is wrong" is true. Sometimes, we never accept when we're wrong.

"and you see the terror" represents that nobody cared until something had to happen.

I'm sorry I couldn't get much from these quotes. This topic is a bit tough for me sometimes and I'm just doing my best to help.
