Answer 2 questions

1. I predict that the story will be about President Kennedy.

2. Some ways that Elena and Eugene are alike is that they both like each other but is shy to admit it to each other. Some ways they are different is that Elena is a girl and Eugene is a boy. Eugene lives in a house. Elena lives in an apartment Eugene is in AP classes in school Elena is not.

3. I can summarize that Elena decides to keep the secret that she could see into kitchen through her bedroom window.

4. The first column reflects the heritage when Elena's mom nags her about now being a senorita. Senorita is spanish so Elena is spanish or hispanic. The tradition in spanish is that if your in your mid teens and is a girl you are known as a woman or senorita. The attitudes of the writter is bored because she is tired of hearing the same thing over and over again.

5. The thing that significant about Mr. DePalmer's behavior is that he was crying. He made the students stand in two rows as he sat there and cried, like really cried, really he sobbed!!!! He was than angered because after he delivered the bad news it seemed as though the students didn't care much. He lashed out in anger and call all the students idiots and losers.

6. It is ironic that Elena and Eugene chose to study about American history was because of the death of president John F. Kennedy. It was considered a time when history was being made.

7. I can infer that the author feels very strongly about discrimination and prejudiced. I believe the fact that one of the characters actually witnesses it on a first hand account might reflect what the writer herself has experienced when it comes to prejudiced or discriminate people.
