Kite Runner Chapters 10 & 11

In chapter 11, the author wrote that Baba like America’s idea. The reason is in page 111, Baba said, “There are only three real men in this world,” and he think that “America the brash savior, Britain, and Israel.” Although he likes the idea of American, Baba can’t fit in the life in American. In page 112, it said, “but the bay area’s smog stung his eyes, the traffic noise gave him headaches, and the pollen made him cough.” It almost looks like everything is not enough good. Also, Baba is not good at English, and some people in America do not like him. Just like Mr. and Mrs. Nguyen, in page 113, Mr. Nguyen said, “He’s crazy. Not welcome anymore.” After this kind of things happened, Baba become to the person that always thinks the past life is better than now. So, sometimes the realities are really different with your thinking.
For me, one of the differences between my idea of America and the reality of living in America is that to study in American college is more difficult than what I thought. I think in America you need work more hard than in China. One thing that is similar with my idea is there really have some rigorous law are you just be able to do something when you have the enough age, like drink.
