Camp Harmony (Literary Focus, question 6 - Analyze)

6. Analyze Sone says the camp "was hopefully called Camp Harmony". Do you think the name is appropriate, or is it ironic? Support your answer with evidence from the text.

With me, Harmony sounds more likely to be positive, good things. But I don't think that is a good idea to name an Japanese internment camp with full of harsh lives and it sounds ironic. In the Internment Camps, the lives of Japanese American were encircling by the wire fences, they were not allowed to cross the wire fence because they have no rights.

" What was I doing behind the fences, criminal?" (from Monica Sone). The author meant that her family and other Japanese American had no rights in this camp. The food was bad,harsh physical environment, and Japanese American almost had no privacy in Camp Harmony. People in Camp Harmony was also had little spaces with alot of people in cafeteria/Canteen.

This internment camp should be called "Camp Discriminated". Because Japanese Americans were discriminated by the government just because they related to Japanese.

My dad (ICT assignment)



My dad is the one that encourages, and comfort me the most. He praised me a lot of ideas in order to become a good learner and how to apply my skills to daily lives. He used to be the one that drove me to nut the most, but now he changes to be happy man, and being my best friend in the family. He helps me to get through most of troubles at school and home. He’s the one that inspires me to get through risk and become a risk-taker.
