Summary Section:
The first day Manjiro arrived at the school. He saw a coin on the ground so he tried to pick it up, but the coin had continued to move by two boys named Job and Tom. Manjiro realized Job and Tom were playing a trick on him then Manjiro recognized one of the boys, Tom who made fun of him when he first arrived in America. Tom started being mean to Manjiro. He tried to send Manjiro to Japan so they made some operation for sending him. They thought Manjiro was been send America to spy and would report back to Japanese government. Of course it was not true they just couldn't trust and hated Manjiro. Actually Job was not as Tom. Tom didn't pick on Job because Job used to be friend with Tom. That's why Job was going out with him and obeyed him.
Reflection Section:
The story made me falling asleep. I mean it was pretty boring. First when the story was about Tom and Manjiro, it was interesting but after that chapter the story changed about the horse named Duff, Manjiro's horse. There was no any happy or sad or impressive story making me curious or interesting. I am not really satisfied for the chapter i read in this week.
Passage Section:
"People are going to think you 're anti-American if you keep being friends with him. There's no way he will ever really be American. He shouldn't be allowed in this school. We shouldn't have to go to school with people who want to kill us."
This passage is when Tom and Job talked about Manjiro. It is not impressive chapter but I could know Tom was thinking to make a plan to leave Manjiro from the school. It is told me something would happen to Manjiro.
