The Railway Children
By Edith Nesbit
Chapter I, The Beginning of Things
They were not railway children to begin with. I don't suppose they had ever thought about railways except as a means of getting to Maskelyne and Cook's, the Pantomime, Zoological Gardens, and Madame Tussaud's. They were just ordinary suburban children, and they lived with their Father and Mother in an ordinary red-brick-fronted villa, with coloured glass in the front door, a tiled passage that was called a hall, a bath-room with hot and cold water, electric bells, French windows, and a good deal of white paint, and 'every modern convenience', as the house-agents say.
There were three of them. Roberta was the eldest. Of course, Mothers never have favourites, but if their Mother HAD had a favourite, it might have been Roberta. Next came Peter, who wished to be an Engineer when he grew up; and the youngest was Phyllis, who meant extremely well.
Mother did not spend all her time in paying dull calls to dull ladies, and sitting dully at home waiting for dull ladies to pay calls to her. She was almost always there, ready to play with the children, and read to them, and help them to do their home-lessons. Besides this she used to write stories for them while they were at school, and read them aloud after tea, and she always made up funny pieces of poetry for their birthdays and for other great occasions, such as the christening of the new kittens, or the refurnishing of the doll's house, or the time when they were getting over the mumps.
These three lucky children always had everything they needed: pretty clothes, good fires, a lovely nursery with heaps of toys, and a Mother Goose wall-paper. They had a kind and merry nursemaid, and a dog who was called James, and who was their very own. They also had a Father who was just perfect—never cross, never unjust, and always ready for a game—at least, if at any time he was NOT ready, he always had an excellent reason for it, and explained the reason to the children so interestingly and funnily that they felt sure he couldn't help himself.
You will think that they ought to have been very happy. And so they were, but they did not know HOW happy till the pretty life in the Red Villa was over and done with, and they had to live a very different life indeed.
The dreadful change came quite suddenly.

After reading the essay, what have you learned about Hispanic heritage? How do you think Alvarez’s heritage affected her? Write your answer in a paragraph (100 to 150 words).
( poem name/nombres )
Answer and Explanation:
After reading the essay "Names nombres" written by J. Alvarez, we can learn how difficult it is for a family of Spanish origin to maintain their names and traditions within a totally different culture like that of the USA, especially when that family comes from a country considered to be "third world", seen as inferior and often shameful and devalued. This affected the way Alvarez saw her own identity, associated with her and her family names. These names were pronounced so differently by the Americans, it seemed that they were erasing the Latin origin of it and imposing an Americanized and more "normal" version.
In this essay, Alvarez approaches her youth as a Latin immigrant in the USA. It shows how difficult it is to live between two cultures and how it affects various elements in people's lives.
Answer:
Family is very important to the author, so it makes me think that family is important to Hispanic culture. Even extended family members are close in the story. It also seems like the author has a strong sense of family history. The author’s ancestors are remembered by passing on their names to the children. Hispanic heritage has always been a big part of the author’s life. Some parts of it, such as having to introduce her big family to her friends, embarrasses her. But it’s her family and her Hispanic heritage that supports her and helps her deal with the challenges of being an immigrant.

Other people have discussed what they saw and this is not in Hamlet's imagination. He could be really sad that his Father has died, but did he really lose his mind? Probably not.

Since others saw this same ghost, it is not in his head. The ghost is realllllll.

Should all students go to college? Give me 2 reasons why they should and why they shouldn’t.
Answer:
Students should go to college to receive more knowledge about their future career and to learn to be more responsible, turning in work on time and doing other things they need to do, especially if you decide to stay on the campus. Now why shouldn't they go, many students don't really put the effort into their learning, so ultimately, for them going to college might be a waste of time and a waste of money if they are not actually paying attention and they are just trying to get out of home, the second reason is that, some students don't need to go, because some don't want fancy jobs, others prefer very simple jobs and don't really care about their salaries
Explanation:
I'm not very good at this but I hope you found it somewhat helpful :)
Answer: one reason why they should go to college: People who go to college open up their choices for jobs. Many jobs these days require a college degree. Plus, college graduates have less chance of losing their jobs.
2nd reason: You'll learn to be more independent and gain the skills and knowledge you need to prepare you for the future.
a reason why you shouldn't go to college: Many graduates are left with useless courses they can't get jobs in. You often have to do another course because you're not qualified enough with only one degree
2nd reason: By plowing more money into an education, many students incur incredible amounts of debt before they ever get their first paycheck, or maybe their parents spend savings that would have helped their retirement. That adds to the nation's debt problems
