During his first attempts north, a chance meeting saved
Enrique from the worst of the gangs. As he set out on his
trip, he noticed another teenager, a gangster named El
Brujo, at the bus station in Honduras waiting to go to the
Mexican border. Enrique doesn't like gangs. But as the two
spent hours traveling through Honduras and Guatemala
together, they became friends. On their first train ride
through Chiapas, El Brujo introduced Enrique to a dozen
other MS members, among them Big Daddy, who is skinny
and short; El Chino (the Chinaman), who has slanted eyes;

On subsequent trips, when he was deported, he always
stuck with one of these gang members to protect himself
from any attacks.

write two paragraphs to compare and contrast the narrators’ schools and explain how their schools shape their perspectives toward the hijab. cite evidence from the text to support your ideas.

copy and paste answer:

two paragraphs to compare and contrast the narrator's schools would be this, the one school with the veil is the one school were the students were forced to wear the veils, and they did not know why they had to wear the veils. the girl student writing the story was not like the other students, she didn't care. in the second school there was a lot of hostile activities going on throughout the school. most of the students were upset and this, including the author, but she was trying to look and the good side of things.  

overall, both schools had something that the students or most of the students did not like or appreciate. what you can learn from these stories is that life will never be exactly how you may want it to be. complaining about your lifestyle will only make matters worse or at least feel worse in the long run. that's happens to be the information you can interpret from these two stories.
