Gentleman of Rio en Medio - Make Judgements

The narrator is familiar to the culture and way of living of the Americans. He doesn't understand the duty and honor of Don Anselmo which caused them to have conflict because of different living ways and believing in different ideas. To Don Anselmo, he respects the properties of other people so he decided not to touch it when he sold the land. To me, Don Anselmo is right because those trees don't belong to him so he doesn't have the right to do anything with them. Just because you HAVE it doesn't mean that it's YOURS. And also, I don't know what's in the contract Don Anselmo's signed but I believe there's no such thing as "When the American bought the land, everything that is in the land is theirs". Overall, Don Anselmo is the right guy.

Stop the Sun Literature Focus - Make Judgements

I think that it was a good idea to ask Terry's father about his illness. Yes it was very hurtful to the father but it gave Terry the knowledge of his father's illness and it helps Terry to understand what his father has been through so that he can fix his behaviors. And maybe, since Terry already knew the cause of the illness, he might know what he could do to encourage or cheer his father up. To me, it's a good thing.
