Camp Harmony

Question 5) From the beginning, the author said "When our bus turn to a corner and we no longer had to smile and wave, we settled back gravely in our seats.", it proves that the people on the bus were depressed about themselves. In the next sentence, she said "except" means that he had the opposite mood and he wasn't sad as same as the others. Then, the mother's face was red and angry because that group of students woke her baby up and cry. Everyone on the bus was pressure and tough. They were a little angry and worried because suddenly, the war began and they had to move to a camp with stopping their jobs, getting used to live a tough life and tiny little house. All the way to the camp, I guess they were thinking about their life after they're gotten into the camp.

At the end of the journey, the author said every one in the story sat quietly because they knew they'd have going to a place where they never wanted to go. Every one felt less stressed because they finally arrived to a place where they thought they'd stick there forever. All the way, they tried to think and reminded themselves to get used to live with their lives. They were still a little impressive but they thought that they must accept what they have because they were forced to live there.

"Gentlemen of Rio de Medio" How I think of it?

For this story, I chose question 7 for my work.
In a basis of agent person between love and work, I thought both sides were right, but they all were shortcoming when they're dealing. 
In Don Anselmo's side, I thought he shortcoming in telling the lawyer officer about the trees not belong to him, and he fell unendureable when he saw the kids overrun the orchard. The money those officers paid to buy the land is really cheap, just 200$ though they bid the land over double-that-price, this shows us he didn't care about how much it was. He cared of what would they improve his land and the safety of that land. He told the trees aren't his was because he plant them not for him, that symbolize and be owned by his descendants. For each tree, there is a birth of a child related to him has been born on the earth. All those trees were his lovers' symbol, not his symbols so they couldn't damage the trees.
In the officers' side, I thought theyh were right, too. because they kept and worked as they promised, the problem was just a mistake when they discussed to have the result. Though, the trees have to grow on lands, so those trees were definitely belonged to them, but they still pay a property of money for buying trees. I think they are conscientious and kind after all.
