Terry's Assignment 9

My topic is Baba’s life in Afghanistan and in US.
There are many differences about his life in the two different places. When he was in Afghanistan, he had some luxurious house facilities and rich enough to do some charitable works, such as to build an orphanage. Make a lot money once on business and get others' respect. However, he nearly lost everything when he came to US. A luxurious house became a poor room. A hard job only could satisfy their basic life, even his neighbour always shout to him. On the other aspect, the similarities are smoking and loving Amir no matter where he was. Baba smoked a lot wherever he was and it resulted to his cancer directly. He loved Amir very much, such as help him to celebrate his birthday, spending a lot on his education and saving money for his wedding.

  1. Terry, you have a good start here but your three points need to be better defined. The first one, social status, will be very easy to support with many examples. Smoking is too much of a detailed point and you need to tie it in with something bigger like "actions" or "habits" or "lifestyle." Loving Amir is also too detailed - you might change it to "his relationship with Amir."
