Written Assignment Correction

Rationale The Kite Runner is a novel about a boy called Amir, that lives in Afghanistan, and has a very close friend that is also his servant called Hassan. My text will be linked in various aspects of the novel because for this written task, I chose to write a letter from Amir to Hassan, both characters in the novel “The Kite Runner”. The principal theme will be their relation as friends. This letter is written from Amir as an adult, who has grown up, not just physically, but emotionally, he is more mature than in the novel. He expresses his feelings and remembers different situations, where he was unfair to Hassan, moments that he feels guilty for. I chose to write a letter because I think it is the best type of text to express someone’s feelings to another person because it is intimate,and you can easily narrate things that have happened in the past from an emotional point of view. The letter was written in a semi-formal language, because they were friends, very close during their childhood, but they broke their relation, so it must be a semi-formal language because they have not talked since then. Writen Assignment Preparation Afghanistan EEUU Kabul San Francisco Kebaba Street Carrot Street 215 716 9th September 2015 Dear Hassan, The main reason I am writing this letter to you is because I want to apologize. Many years have passed since the last time we saw each other. I never told you, but I wasn’t the same after the kite incident. I never forgave myself after everything I did to you, the truth is that I was not fair with you. I am not going to give you any excuses, because I do not have them, the only thing I have is guilt. I never told you this, but I have always thought you knew. When you ran that last kite at the tournament, you never came back, so I went and looked for you. I saw everything that happened that day, how Asseff threatened you, how you defended that kite for me, and also how Asseff raped you. I was jealous because I could not protect myself, and you always stood up for me. When I could not get the courage to interfere while Asseff was raping you, I projected my shame for this on you, and I am sorry for that. The reason I feel shame and guilt for this, is that I was not brave enough to do something, I abandoned you, a thing that you would have never done. As you said, “For you, a thousand times over”. I have never stopped thinking about that moment, I have nightmares, everything for the guilt I have been feeling over these years. Until now, because as I have been doing, I want to express my feelings to you, I want to unburden myself. The truth is, I have tried to bury my feelings, and memories about everything I did to you, lock them away, and never look back. However, it is not possible to hide such painful memories that are the origin of my guilt. I still remember the pomegranate tree, we would go there and read. You would hear my stories, we spent our closest moments in there. One day, I asked you what you would do if I threw a pomegranate at you. You said nothing, and I just threw it at you in an attempt to get you angry and fight. It did not work, as usual your loyalty was superior to anything. Nothing could make you fight with me or hate me. I probably did this because I envied you, because I could not stand for myself in the same way you stood for me, you were always there to protect me, and I wanted to be like you in that way, but for protecting me I have not been able to thank you yet, and I hope one day I can And one of the things I am most ashamed of, is for putting that watch in your room, so Baba would be angry at you and kick you out. That was my main objective that day. But, as usual I overestimated your loyalty, you accepted blame for stealing that, and baba forgave you. Sadly, I succeeded, not in the way I had planned it, but you left with Ali. That was the last time I saw you, and I have two things to say, I am sorry and that I have missed you. I hope we can talk about this and that you can forgive me for the horrible things I did. Your friend, Amir.

Task about reservations

When and why were reservations founded? Some friends told me that reservations were founded on the 18th century, and they were founded because they want to preservate the native amiricans traditions and culture. How different are they from national US land? The difference between national US land and the reservations is that the national US land protect special areas of the EEUU, like the grand canyon Why do so many Native Americans live outside the reservations? Because the conditions of life in the reservations are not very good, so they prefer to live outside them Do reservations help preserve tradition and culture? Yes, because is like a animal reservation and in an animal reservation you can preservate a specie, and is the same here, but preservating the tradition and culture from the people in the reservation.
