Chapter 12 Phoenixes has destroyed the fields, the damage was pretty bad. Cassia and her family had to buy their own food for next month. They had to sell their old furniture to the clerk who is visiting the village to buy things. Cousin Spider came back after 5 years.

Chapter 13

The clerk visited Cassia’s house with his coolies. Cassia’s father shows him some furniture but the clerk had eyes for Mother’s story window. The clerk wants the mother’s chest an wardrobe also, but father refuses to sell those. However Cassia decides to sell the chest and the wardrobe, but not the story window. While Foxfire talked with the coolies about the Golden Mountains.

Chapter 14

The autumn’s harvest was the worst that anyone could remember. The family had to feed on simple foods. Foxfire wanted to go overseas to earn money, because the family was short on money.

Chapter 15

Spider and some men came at the house, they aid they are going to drive the Manchus away. However father disagrees there is a conflict between the two.

Chapter 16

Spider tied Cassia’s family up. Father woke up from the unconsciousness, and tried to untie the ropes. Father and Foxfire argued with each other. They made themselves free.

Chapter 17

Cassia and father put out the fire. The whole clan starts to blame Spider and the bandits on father. Father decides disown Foxfire because he is not what father wants him to be. I think father is asking too much out of Foxfire because he can't be exactly what father wants. I can't believe Foxfire has gone over seas to go to the golden mountains. Maybe his braver than we thought.

Chapter 18

Cassia had to go to the clerk. Clan members came out with pitiful or satisfied expressions on their faces. Cassia thought that she was going to be sold as a slave. However, she found that she got money from Foxfire. Father and Cassia were so happy and they now knew that Foxfire was alive.

Chapter 19

Foxfire still cared about Cassia and father. If he hadn't sent the money, the clan would have not been able to survive. Also, it show a lot of effort from Foxfire to actually send a letter home. I think it was a good thing that father bought Uncle Blacky the title of Scholar. Now, the Young clan is equal to the Phoenix clan. Also, Cassia and father can grow good crops with the good fields.

Chapter 20

Everybody in the clan got so excited about the story of Foxfire and the golden mountain that the story was no longer recognizable. I think the clan was getting head over heels. Just because some of the clan was going overseas did not mean they will survive and send back money. The voyage itself is very hard to survive. Father and Cassia find Dusty at mother's grave. I think Dusty should just go away. He has no business with the Young clan and all he wants is money.

The themes of chapter one are happy family and parting from your family which is both dark and bright at the same time, by introducing a family to the audiences it shows the bright mood of the story, but how the main character’s dad had to go to a war, go apart from his family changes the mood. The main character is the Cassia who is brave and responsible, and her family who are, dad who is brave and strong, her mom who is small but take cares of the family and her brother, Foxfire who is a crybaby. Cassia is annoyed with her brother because their parents is really generous on him just because he is a boy. This Story takes place during the time when the British army attacked China, and the barbarians Manchus who ruled over China had seemed powerless to stop who they call the demons which is the British. Although mom and dad didn’t like the Manchus, they didn’t love the demons even less, and when the officials asked for help to the people, dad and mom decided that dad should go. Dad and his fellow warriors ( there were only six of them) set on a journey to fight against the demons.

Chapter 2

Father was soon out of sight, and as soon as he was out of sight, Foxfire started to cry, Cassia got annoyed with him and admonished him, saying if father would had seen him cry, he would told him to be a gallant like himself. Soon mom woke up from sleeping, and took her children to the story window to tell them a story about a wanderer who married a serpent. Once there was a wanderer who just reached a village, he could hear the music coming from the tower, once the villager saw the wanderer listening to the music she warned him not to listen because the music is the spell caused by a serpent living in the tower. However the wanderer headed towards to the tower to find not a serpent but a beautiful young lady, the wanderer married the young lady and lived happily until when the priest came knocking at the door, the wanderer let the priest in, and the priest told the wanderer that his wife was a serpent. The priest said a quick spell and the enchantment was broken, the wanderer saw a big snake. He left the tower with his son and the priest, with anger the serpent chased after them playing the music where his husband could hear. The wanderer heard the music and thought about the good memories they had together, and decides to go back with her. The mom tells her children not to fight because they both have the blood of the serpent.

Chapter 3

The themes of chapter 3 are sadness when losing someone you really loved, and fear when you have to care of not only yourself but others. Although the chapter introduces a new character, still it makes the mood sad because Cassia’s mom die. As I mentioned chapter 3 contains a new character called Aster, who is a friend of Cassia, and belongs to the group called strangers. Strangers are some of the people who settled in the province after the Manchus took over China. Aster has been betrothed to his husband Tiny, when they were just infants, and now Aster serves under her mother in law and her father in law. While the book suggest the new character, it mentions Cassia’s mom has been sick and now has decided to go back to the field. Once in the field mom told Cassia about the field that was once owned by their ancestor, and how their ancestor died trying to protect his field. Soon after, mom fell down saying “take care of your family” to her daughter, she never opened her eyes again no matter how many times her daughter called her.

C hapter 4

The theme of chapter 4 is undesirable. In this chapter it shows clearly how the Cassia and his brother are unwilling to live with Uncle Windy and Aunt Piety, and Cassia’s undesirous when Aunt Piety bind Cassia’s foot together in-order to get her to be able to marry to a rich husband. After the funeral of Cassia’s mom, Cassia and brother, Foxfire were taken by Uncle Windy and Aunt Piety. While staying in Aunt Piety’s house, Aunt Patient and her niece Lily visited and bind her foot like Lily’s foot, in order to make her able to marry to a rich husband which Cassia didn’t want.

chapter 5

In chapter 5, it has the theme of caring for your family, by showing us that even though Cassia and Foxfire fight every time, they are there for each other when they really need help. In this chapter Cassia realizes that his brother is the only one that she could really trust, when she saw Foxfire was the only one trying to rescue her when her foot was binding. In this chapter it also reveals the truth about Cassia and Foxfire that they have the serpent’s blood. During the night, when everyone at sleep, Cassia took her brother back to home quietly. The next day morning Uncle Windy and other adults came to get them back, but they strongly refused, so the adults just gave up.

Chapter 6

The theme of chapter 6 is friendship because when Cassia an Foxfire was in danger, Aster showed up and helped them. Also with Aster’s family’s help, Cassia and her brother were able to harvest rice on the field. In chapter 6 it also shows us the family reunion when father came back from the war.

Chapter 7

Seven years passes since father came back, during those 7 years the demons demanded more and more and Manchus just gave it to them. Worse yet, the demons’ opium began to seep throughout the countryside. They could only hear the failed attempt of uprising, and their brothers are getting hunted. Meanwhile the village got attacked by the Phoenixes, the rich clan from the next village. Cassia and her family was in danger.

Chapter 8

Cassia and her family was surrounded by the Phoenixes, but her father managed to scare them off. After they went to get their militia, but a man was capturing the militia. Father goes up to him, and he realizes he was Dusky, father’s old friend. Dusky told father that he was paid to do the dirty work for the Phoenixes. He and Dusty started the fight.

Chapter 9

Dusky was too quick for father, Dusky strolled down the path after saying,”Remember: I’ll be down there with my hosts so don’t you dare leave this village” to father. Father walked with a support of his daughter Cassia, in the village father and Cassia could see the Phoenixes taking the crops. Father and Cassia would go and fight the Phoenixes away, but the village people refused to help her even Foxfire refused to help. So father decides not to go, not for himself but for her daughter.

Chapter 10

Now the Phoenixes left leaving nothing behind but waste, the village people felt hopeless when they saw it. Worse yet their rice hadn’t been good enough to steel, nearly half of them trampled down into the dirt. However they work on the field again to save the crops they can.

Reading Assignment 1. "A Day's Wait"

Ernest Hemingway is an American novelist and short-story writer, whose style is characterized by brief and concise dialogue, and emotional understatement, Hemingway's writings influence d on American writers of his time. Many of his works are regarded as classics of American literature. " A Day's Wait " is a short story by Ernest Hemingway that evinces Hemingway’s distinctive writing style which seems simple and almost childlike, and us es simple nouns and verbs to capture scenes precisely. The story focuses on a nine-year old boy named Schatz and his father. When the boy gets the flu, his temperature rises to 102 degrees. He becomes very depressed and finally asks when he will die, thinking that a 102 degree temperature is deadly because he heard in France that a person cannot live with a temperature over 44 degrees. When the father explains to him the difference between the scales in different thermometers, Schatz slowly relaxes, and the next day, "he cried very easily at little things that were of no importance." In this story, it talks about the simple misunderstanding we all could have or experienced like the boy in the story who didn’t know the difference between Celsius and Fahrenheit until his dad told him. I had a similar misunderstanding like this before when I didn’t know the difference between miles and meters until my teacher told me. It’s normal to have these misunderstandings, but it’s important that we find the answer.

This story’s main characters are basically the boy and his father. In this story we can tell that the boy is anxious and very worried, because when his temperature rises to 102 degrees he thinks its high enough to kill him. Because he heard in France that a person cannot live with a temperature over 44 degrees. However his father is very calm and thoughtful, and tries to calm his son down and explains the difference between Celsius and Fahrenheit. In this book, the differences in scales symbolizes that we should know the difference between Fahrenheit and Celsius before we make any similar mistakes like the boy did in the story.

2."All Summer In a Day"

Ray Douglas Bradbury  (born August 22, 1920) is an American fantasy, horror, science fiction, and mystery writer. As a boy Ray Douglas loved magicians, circuses and the stories of science-fiction, and he eventually became a science- fiction author himself. " All Summer in a Day " is a short story by science fiction author Ray Bradbury. It is an example of a science fiction written by Ray Bradbury. The story is about a group of frolicking nine-year-old schoolchildren residing on cold, wet Venus, it is constantly raining. Seeing the sun is a very rare event, occurring only every seven years for just two hours. Margot is a little girl who moved to Venus from Earth so she could remember the sun. The kids are jealous of Margot because she remembers the sun from her time on Earth. They were only two years old when the sun came out, and do not remember it. The day when the sun came out, while the teacher is out of the room, a boy convinces the other children to lock Margot in the closet. The teacher finally comes back. The sun is actually about to come out, and the teacher takes the children outside. They finally see the sun in the blue sky, they all forget about Margot. All at once, a girl starts to cry because she feels a raindrop in her hand. She realizes the rain is returning. The children run back inside, suddenly one of the children remembers Margot, still locked in the closet. They stand frozen realizing what they have done. The children let Margot out. Although Ray Bradbury is a science-fiction author, this story is more like real life story. The story deals with a theme, bulling, by telling a story about a girl who is from Earth and moved to Venus. The kids are jealous of her because she remembers the sun from her time on Earth. In Venus you only can see the sun once in 7 years. Something similar to this could happen in real life, suppose you just moved to a country side from a big city, the kids there will be jealous of you, because you experienced what they didn’t.

The protagonist of the story is a little girl called Margot. She is from Earth, so she could remember the sun. The antagonists who are the other kids bully her just because she is from Earth. In this story Margot wants to watch the sun but cannot watch because the other kids locked her up in the closet.  In this story, the bullies symbolizes that this story is not just science fiction, but it’s more like a real life story. It also tells us, we are should get equal opportunities.

5 Paragraph March 5th

In 100 years the earth will be a complete rubbish bin where it is all polluted, and because of that we are not the only one who will pay for it, it will also bring harm to other living things because of the things we did. Taking out earth's natural resources, population growth, destroing the enviroment, these are the main reasons that causes earth to pollute. However many people don't relize how serious this is, and when the pollution gets to the point that it affects our lives, then people will take care in it, but then the earth would be polluted so much that we can't do anything.

Natural resources are running out quick compare to the increase of population growth, and if the situation continues like it is now, we will come up to a point where the amount of natural resourses being digged out can't keep up with a amount of it being used, and if so, in 100 years, or even sooner, we will be out of it. Oil or other industries dig natural resoures, we burn them, and CO2 is produced. This is the daily progress that happens everyday, and that causes earth to pollute, and we can't deny that. The CO2 being produced will cause the ozon layer to get destroy and allow more heat iside it, which is the cause of global warming. Deforesting trees also take part in this because trees are like our air cleaner and once it's gone not only it will degrade the soil it will also help to increase the amount of CO2 to increase. If this carries on, in 100 years the earth's temperture will be so high that it's unable to live on, and the air will be polluted badly.

Population growth is a cause because as population grows there will be more mouth to feed, and then the next thing is there will be a lack of food supplies, water and spaces. People will start to think there are not enough food and water for them, and as the result of that, the amount theives will increase, naturaly poeple will forget about disciplines and rules. The world of chaos would come, and If the situation gets worse there will be wars. .

Destroing the enviroment is an another cause. Deforesting forests causes many animals will lose their habitats, and global warming causing the ocean temperture to increse which is fatal to ocean creatures, and many animals will be extincted because of this. Dunping trash in water also causes ocean creaturs to die.

Things we've done to this planet, to make improvements, to live a better life or just simply to fulfil our greed and desire, the point is it doesn't matter, because it's the matter of what will happen? what will eventually affect us. However people don't care about what will happen as long as it doesn't affect them, but when it comes to that time, when it practically affects them, that's when people goes to panic and start to blame each other. But the truth is we are all responsible for this, no one is more innocent than who, we are just getting a consequence for the things we did, and one thing for sure that time not far away .So we got to do something before it's too late.
