HW Mr. Padilla 2.11.16


Homework: Parents/guardians, please help your child with today’s homework. Topic: Why did the Americans feel the A-Bomb was necessary?

*Mrs. Nakamura took the children out into the street. They had nothing on but underpants, and although the day was very hot, she worried rather confusedly about their being cold, so she went back…and found a bundle of clothes she had packed for an emergency, and she dressed them …The children were silent, except for the five-year-old, Myeko, who kept asking questions: “Why is it night already? Why did our house fall down? What happened?” Mrs. Nakamura, who did not know what had happened … looked around and saw through the darkness that all the houses in her neighborhood had collapsed, The house next door… was…torn down; its owner… lay dead.
