James' Homework:
The diffierence
We talked about the book's main time and place last class,and we had a new question. If the story happen at this time, what will happen?
In my opinion, if the family live in China now, they will be very rich. Let's first talk about the relationship between people in China. We never treat people in different way just because they looks different. That means people who live here have the same chance. They can work together in piece and they can be good friends. Different from the U.S. spirit, if we are friends, we are always getting ready to help others. So this is the first reason the family will be rich. Second, in many ways, the black people are more efficient, for example, if a chinese worker can carry a truck of brick one day, a black people might carry two trucks, and his salary will be one time more than a chinese worker. This is another way to show that a black man will live better in China now. The third , if he doesn't want to work very hard, he can be a foreign teacher in a school. It would get a high salary. And the last thought is little strange and impossible, black man can ru really fast, so they can run away safely after they rob somebody.
