enders game by mohammed abed 811

In the book “Ender’s Game” by Orson Scott Card, Andrew “Ender” Wiggin is the main character. Ender developed and changed over the course of the book. My first impression of Ender is that he was eccentric, impulsive, and a pariah. Ender acted as a leader towards the middle of the book. He was also confident towards the middle of the book. Ender changed internally and externally at the end of the book. Ender changed internally because he stopped comparing himself to Peter and he changed externally by becoming serious and cautious.

            My first impression of ender is that he was eccentric, impulsive, and a pariah. I thought Ender was eccentric because he had the monitor when he was six years old and most kids took it off when they were less than five years old. Ender was also very impulsive at the beginning of the book like when he fought Stilson. Stilson beat him up at first with a group of people, after they started to leave, Ender got up and beat up Stilson. He did that impulsively because Stilson had many friends still with him and he didn’t think he would get in trouble for fighting back. That’s when he got noticed by Graff and then he gets recruited by the army. He is also a pariah in the beginning of the book. Ender is a pariah at school and at home. At school he gets bullied and at home he isn’t really noticed as a part of the family, except from his sister.

            Ender acted as a leader towards the middle of the book. He was also confident during the middle of the book. He acted as a leader by teaching his army what he had learned. He was one of the best, if not the best soldier ever so he helped his army a lot. He is confident he can beat any army because he made his army very flexible if put into a tough situation.

            Ender changed internally because he stopped comparing himself to Peter and he changed externally by becoming serious and cautious. Ender would always compare himself with Peter when he would do something bad or something that would hurt someone else. For example, when he beat up Stilson he felt like he was becoming Peter, but now when he does something bad, he doesn’t compare himself like Peter anymore. Ender is very serious and cautious at the end of the book. For example, he wouldn’t laugh as much as he did in the beginning and middle of the book. He also didn’t like to joke as much as he did with his friends and soldiers.  He wasn’t laid back as much and he would always watch his back throughout the end of the book.

            In the book “Ender’s Game” by Orson Scott Card Ender changed over the course of the book. He was eccentric, impulsive, and a pariah in the beginning. He acted as a leader towards the middle and was also confident. He also changes internally and externally at the end of the book. He changes internally because he stopped comparing himself to his older brother Peter when he did bad things. He changed externally by becoming more serious. He also became more cautious with his surroundings. He changed a lot during the book and will probably change even more during the second book.

Response to Rash by Pete Hautman Mohammed Abed 811

   The book "Rash" by Pete Hautman is about how the U.S has turned into the USSA and is obsessed with safety. Bo Marsten was sentenced for manual labor and now hates the law. Issues in the book are treated in many different ways. The most important way is by being sent to Mr. Lipkin at security, safety, and health. That's where they see if you're guilty or not.

       Bo Marsten was sent there many times. Most recently he was sent for doing cruel things. He was doing it to one person inpiticular. He was doing it to Karlohs Mink. First he was accused of calling him a "pretentious droog" (which he did) and then they accused him of giving Karlohs a rash. I dont know if he gave him the rash or not. Both times he was sent to the same place, Mr. Lipkin at security, safety, and health.

      Most issues in the book are handled to Mr. Lipkin at security, safety, and health. Bo Marsten is looking at some serious time for what he did for did to Karlohs. I'm wounds ring if he will run or just do his time. 

Response for inquiry question 2 by Mohammed Abed

       In the book "Tears of a Tiger" issues are treated differently by different characters. B.J handled his issues by going to church, Andy handled his issues by going to a psychologist and talking to the coach, Rhonda handled her issues by writing to her sister and/or writing it in ELA class for an assignment. 

       B.J handled his issues by going to church. For example, when he stopped going to church and then after the acciedent he started to go back and he tells god that he wants his forgiveness and to please help Andy. Rhonda handled her issues by writing in ELA class. For instance, she wrote a poem about how bad it's been lately and an letter about what happens to her sister.

       Andy handles his issues by talking to his coach and going to the psychologist. When the coach sees Andy he always says are you alright and is willing to talk about Rob's death with Andy. Andy also handles his issues by talkng to a psychologist. For example, Andy talked with the psychologist almost every other week until he says Andy has gotten better which wasnt true because he killed himself a little after they stopped talking. 

       In the book "Tears of a Tiger" different characters handle their problems in different ways. Some by talking to people and some by writing it to people or in a diary. For some people it helped them with their problems and others it didn't. In Andy's case it didn't but in B.J and Rhonda's case it helped them a little.
