**__Summary of the Video Presentation__** The Video is about the materials economy in the U.S., the people’s pattern of consumption, and the problems it brings. The presenter also suggested solutions to the problem at the end of her presentation. According to the video, the material economy simply means that the people in the U.S. are highly dependent on material consumption, mostly excessive. This behavior gives everyone in the planet a lot of problems or challenges: from the process of extracting for raw materials, to produce the products, distribute them, then consume and finally dispose them:

I. **Extraction** is getting the raw materials (natural resources) from the earth. It causes environmental destruction or at least degradation, especially in the poor countries where these raw materials are sourced.

II. **Production** is the process of converting these raw materials to goods for human consumption. This process too causes pollution and contamination of the natural environment that in turn badly affects the health of the people and other living things. This is largely through the use of chemicals to make the material usable. The chemicals used in turn produce other forms of chemicals many of which are toxic. In fact, they say that in the U.S. alone, more than 4 billion pounds of toxic chemicals are emitted in the atmosphere every year.

III. **Distribution** is the means these finished products reach the consumers. This process too creates problems. From the pollutants emitted by vehicles, ocean going ships, airplanes, and other modes of transportation that carry them, to exploitation of those employees hired to sell them by way of low wages, lack of or a complete absence of health insurance, and other labor exploitation. The objective or effects are to keep the price very low so that more goods can be produced and sold. Like in the production, some corporations even use children to help distribute the finished products to consumers

IV. **Consumption** is the heart of this problem. According to the presenter, Americans are the biggest consumers of goods and services in the world though it has only less 5 percent of the world’s population. The producers or manufacturers, on the other hand, are encouraged to buy more and more, enticed by low prices. This consumption behavior is driven by endless advertisements and other promotional activities. We end up spending more money and more time (both in the workplace and shopping malls and groceries) to buy these materials.

V. **Disposal** is the final destination of these used goods which also contribute to the degradation of our natural environment. Most of the trash either goes to landfill which poison the soil or burned them that pollute the air. According to the video, the smoke that comes out of the incinerated garbage contains one of the most toxic chemicals known to man. These chemicals threaten the health of the people exposed to them. Though recycling helps but it does not contribute substantially to the solution. In addition, not all refused can be recycled.

The good new according to the lady is that there are solutions to all the problems mentioned above. One way is for the people to be united in the recognition of the problems brought about by the adverse effects of our pattern of consumption. We also should recognize that there are alternative ways to produce and distribute these goods, and disposed of the by-products of our consumption. In sum, it is base on sustainability of our resources, equity, green initiatives, zero waste and similar means.

**Lisa Sellers** I interviewed Lisa Sellers from the Learning Assistance Center. Before she got married, her last name was Logan. Lisa’s mother gave her the name “Lisa” because it was popular in the 1950s. Lisa is a short version of Elizabeth, which is Hebrew for God’s promise. Lisa’s mother liked alliterations, so she named all her children beginning with the letter “L”. For example, Lisa’s sisters’ names are Lori and Lana. Another reason why her mother chose her name was that it was modern and trendy. Lisa likes her name because, as a teenager, she heard it often because it was popular. She never wanted to change it because when she heard it, it reminded her of her mother, who passed away.

Fahad Alnefaie Iyengar EN1313 2-3-11 My Study Abroad Experiences Everybody has had a lot of stories happen to them in their lives. The story that I want to write about began when my father decided to send me to the U.S. to study abroad. He convinced me to study English in the U.S. and also to pursue my B.A degree. At that time I didn't want to leave my family and my country, but my father told me that this would be good for my future and my father would be by my side at all times. I packed my bags to leave my home country and before I left to the airport I remembered my father’s words, “Take care of yourself and I'm proud of you son.” My flight was from Riyadh, the capital city of Saudi Arabia, to Washington DC. I arrived there at 5p.m. There was someone from the Saudi Embassy to take me and some other Saudi students to the Saudi Embassy's hotel. When I got there, I went to bed right away because I was very tired. The next morning, I went to the Embassy to do the required paperwork, to complete all the documents, and also to apply for the Saudi scholarship. My school was Troy University in Alabama, so after I finished with the Embassy, I got back on a plane. I flew to Tampa, Florida where I stayed with my cousin, Abdull, for two days. After that, he drove me to Troy, Alabama. In Troy, I lived with my brothers in a house. That part was nice, but my classes were difficult because my English skills were inadequate. After a month, my speaking skills got better and I made a lot of friends. I was both happy and worried at the same time. I was happy because I had my brothers there, I was learning many skills, both academic and life-related, and I was independent. I was worried about my scholarship and about my family back home. <span style="color: #2a2a2a; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%; text-indent: 0.5in;">After four months in the English program at Troy University, I received good news from the Saudi Embassy. It was one of my most memorable moments that I can’t forget. I was informed officially that the government would sponsor me and that it would pay for all my educational expenses. <span style="color: #2a2a2a; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%; text-indent: 0.5in;">I came to the US in July 2009. During that time, I was required to pay for my tuition and for all my expenses. Before I got the scholarship, I had to take care of all the expenses, such as tuition and health insurance. After waiting four months to hear the good news from our Saudi Embassy regarding my application, I received a phone call. They told me I received a scholarship, and I needed to send them my account number so they could send me my monthly allowance. That day was one of my happiest days. Ever since I received the scholarship, I haven’t had to worry about my tuition and health insurance. <span style="color: #2a2a2a; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%; text-indent: 0.5in;">There were many good characteristics about Troy University, which were the many activities that I participated in and the experiences that I had. For instance, I got to visit New York, Massachusetts, and Pennsylvania. I also got to spend time with students from other universities by playing soccer, having parties, and watching football on TV. Overall, I like Troy because it was the first place I lived in the United States. However, Troy is a small town. It is boring and there is very little to do there. It does not have malls or fun things to do during the weekend like going to comedy shows and amusement parks. When my brother transferred to St. Mary’s University in San Antonio, Texas, I decided to apply there. I was accepted as well, so I moved to Texas. <span style="color: #2a2a2a; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">I like San Antonio better than Troy because there is more to do. It is bigger and the people are different. For instance, in Texas there are not as many racist people; they are more accepting of different nationalities. St. Mary’s University is reputable and has good programs like the business and law programs. I am happy to start school here and work hard to achieve my goals.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: normal;">Fahad Alnefaie <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: normal;">Iyengar <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: normal;">EN1313 <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: normal;">3/30/2011 <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%; text-align: center;">How to Achieve Your Goal <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">Everyone has a goal and works hard to achieve it. For instance, some people want to be engineers, teachers, or judges, and that takes a long time to reach. They do so by working hard, studying, and having patience. With goals, people will learn and experience what it takes to achieve something important to them. Without goals, people will not achieve this valuable experience. To achieve a goal, people need to follow an instructional process. There are some steps on how to achieve your goal. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%; text-indent: 0.5in;">First, identify a goal that you are enthusiastic about. This means knowing what you care about and what is important to you. If you are not enthusiastic, you probably will not achieve your goal. The enthusiastic person will do as much as possible to reach his/her goal. For example, Amelia Earhart flew across both the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean because she wanted to challenge herself. Her enthusiasm helped her to achieve her goal. Second, make a plan of how you will achieve your goal. Without a plan, you will get lost because you do not have instructions on how to reach your goal. Achieving a goal needs a plan on how to get there. Otherwise, you will not know where you are going. When I was in Saudi Arabia, I made a plan for my goal to study in the United States. My plan was to apply to a university, get accepted, and move to the United States. Having this plan helped me to know the steps that I needed to achieve my goal. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%; text-indent: 0.5in;">Next, challenge yourself to stick to your plan. If you do not stick to your plan, you will lose the path that will take you to your goal. Challenging yourself always has valuable benefits. Some of these are patience, hard work, and learning from mistakes. After that, ask for the advice of people with more experience than you. They can tell you what works and what does not work. Then you can be sure that you are in the right direction to reaching your goal. For instance students who do not have a major often go to other students and professors to learn about different majors. This advice helps them to make a good decision and to create their plan. It helps to follow the advice of those who achieved their goal, especially if they had the same goal as you. When you listen to people who advise you, you feel like you will reach your goal sooner because they have already found out what does work and what does not work. <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%; text-indent: 0.5in;">Subsequently, learn as much as possible about your goal through books, newspapers, journals, films, and other kinds of media. You should do this because it will help you plan and learn from others’ experiences. It can help you become an expert on your goal. Keep on going, even if you make a mistake or get discouraged. If you keep going, you will achieve your goal. Everyone makes mistakes, but you learn from them. For example, sometimes when you have a paper due and you think that you did a good job on it, but when you get the grade you are surprised by many mistakes. This is discouraging, but if you take it to a tutor, they can help you fix your mistakes and achieve your goal of getting a good grade. For example, when I need to fix my paper, I take it to the Learning Assistance Center where we talk about the mistakes and find solutions for them. When you fix your mistakes, you can still get to your goal. You can fix it by using the knowledge that helped you learn about your goal. For instance, people who drink and drive may get into an accident that scares them and that way they do not do it again.

Culture shock is temporary and after a period of time you will find your place in your new culture. When you move to a new place, you are bound to face a lot of changes. I have personal experience with culture shock. When I came to the U.S.A to study, I am interested in learning more about culture shock through the current literature on the subject. <span style="display: block; line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 4.5pt; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: 31.5pt;"><span style="color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">A more comprehensive definition of culture shock comes from an article titled, “Culture Shock: Literature Review, Personal Statement and Relevance for the South Pacific. Furnham (2010), confirms my premise, "A sense of loss and feelings of deprivation in regard to friends, status, profession and possessions” (p.87). It is also described in the same article as confusion in role, role expectations, and cultural differences. Culture shock is also a f <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">eeling of impotence due to inability to cope with the new environment. Furnham’s lengthy discussion on culture shock encountered by international students like me asserts the need for coping strategies to overcome surprise, anxiety, even disgust and indignation after becoming aware of cultural differences. <span style="display: block; line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">It has been an established fact that people around the globe travel to another country to study for hundreds of years now. While any country may be the destination of foreign students, many, however, go to developed countries in terms of economy like the U.S., United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and other parts of highly developed countries in Europe. Others go to countries with a rich history and culture like Egypt, China, etc. The expectation of the students is that they will learn life lessons that are quite different from what they learn in their home countries. Their other objectives are to actually see interesting places in the host countries only seen through the media. They have an actual feel of what it is like to live in another culture. More often, most foreign students have very high expectations of the place they are about to embrace, although they have not lived there for a few years. This is coupled with the feeling of pride that they belong to a very few in their neighborhood or their town who are fortunate to travel, study and obtain a degree in a foreign country. However, the reality sets in after a few weeks upon their airplane’s touchdown on the airport’s runway because culture shock sets in. This is my actual experience and the experience of most of the people I know who are similarly situated. For example, when I left my country, I did not realize that I would have to take care of myself, and I felt lonely. <span style="display: block; line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">Hammer’s (1922) study is about the problems with culture shock. He identified seven major problems usually encountered by foreign students: academic/curriculum issues, language problems, economic issues, housing difficulties, problems with social acceptance, difficulties in health and recreation, and racial prejudice. Currently, the difficulty with prejudice is not apparent at least in the United States because prejudice against other races, especially to foreign students, has somewhat mellowed down. This may be perhaps the product of racial revolutions and globalization. Economic and housing problems also have become the least concern of foreign students because most of them have already figured out how much they expect to spend during their stay. Their parents with the help of their governments have also set aside the right amount of funds until graduation. Housing conditions, both in the availability and quality, have also improved with the proliferation of apartment- type dwellings where foreign students usually stay. <span style="display: block; line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">The area of curriculum issues, language problems, and the feeling of inability to become socially accepted are challenging to most foreign students. The curriculum issues are one of the sources of culture shocks because of the sudden change of courses offered in host universities. The way the courses are taught may be very different from what the students are used to. <span style="display: block; line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">Language barrier is another substantial problem. The medium of instruction in their home country is different from the U.S.A/ host country, if not the most important cause of culture shock. While the non-English speaking students are required to have proficiency in the English language, they are asked to enroll in English language schools and most foreign students are not able to pass government or school- mandated examinations as prerequisites for admission in colleges or universities. They still find difficulties in coping with the language of the place. <span style="display: block; line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">Fruhmun (2010) further argues that Culture-learning and its effects on the ethnic identity of foreign students, vis-a-vis those of the local students, remain the concerns of foreign students, along with gender issues, staff–student relationships, and learning preferences, and styles of different groups. Much of the research in this topic suggests that many students feel alienation especially feelings of powerlessness, meaninglessness, and social estrangement while surrounded by the ‘superficial pleasantries’ of their hosts. Most of the research studies aim at looking at the affective, behavioral and cognitive consequences of cross cultural transition in sojourners and have attempted to establish individual, interpersonal, social, structural, and economic factors that best predict adjustment.

==== The chapter tells us about Kim, who is a 13-year-old Irish orphan. Kim is living In Lahore, India with his guardian, Mahbub Ali, who takes care of him. Kim speaks both English and Indian and he knows a lot about the Irish and Indian cultures, so he fits in well with both cultures. People in India call him little friend of all the world. One day, Kim meets a Buddhist lama from Tibet who is searching for the holy river. While he is traveling his chela or servant dies. Kim offers to be his new chela who will accompany him while he searches for the holy river. Kim’s guardian asks him to deliver some documents to an Englishman in Umballa. While they are traveling, two strangers look through the documents and then Kim and the lama leave early the next morning. ====

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 31px; text-align: center;">Summary of the Second Chapter of Kim

<span style="color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%; text-indent: 0.5in;">According to chapter two, the lama and Kim are on a train to Umballa. They meet a Hindu farmer and some other people of different customs from all over India. When they get to Umballa, Kim looks for the Englishman. He discovers that the Englishman is a colonel in the army. Kim gives the Englishman the documents from Ali. He overhears about a war that is related to the documents.

Chapters 3 and 4 of //Kim// Kim and the lama go to the outskirts of Umballa by train to search for the River. They unintentionally trespass in a farmer’s garden. The farmer gets mad at them until he notices the lama is a holy man. Kim gets mad at the farmer for cursing them, but the lama tells Kim not to be judgmental. Later, the headmaster and priest of the village entertain Kim and the lama. Kim pretends to be a prophet and tells them that a big war is coming, based on what he overheard in Umballa. An old Indian soldier does not believe Kim until Kim describes the colonel accurately. The next morning, the soldier goes with Kim and the lama to Grand Trunk Road. On the way, the lama teaches the soldier about detaching from worldly things, but when the lama sings to a child, the soldier makes fun of him for showing his human emotions. Finally, they get to the Grand Trunk Road. They see many diverse people from different religions and countries. Kim is excited by this, but the lama but does not acknowledge it because he is in meditation. In the evening, a widow traveling from north to south takes in Kim and the lama. She gives them food and shelter in exchange for the lama’s charms and prayers.

Chapter 5 of Kim They where still on the quest of finding the River. While they where out on the fields, they get to see some white soldiers. That whenever they are drunk, they can be really dangerous. Then they started to go into other people’s camps. The camps where being marked with a Red Bull which was the crest of the Mavericks and the flag with the Bull stands for war and armed men. Then the prist of Umballa said that thin was the sign of War. After a while they heard the Mavericks playing the regiment to camp, they had find the lama and Kim with them. They took them, and where waiting to speak with one of the Red Bull soldiers. But the opportunity had not come yet. Kim was now telling the lama what to do, and the lama argue with him; on how this was his search and not Kim’s. As how he had suspected, the Sahibs paid to their God, a golden bull fashioned of the Summer Palace at Pekin, of old times. Later, Kim got in trouble by kicking the stomach of Mr. Bennett, and stilling him. Later on, they where questioning him and thinking on beaten him. Kim was explaining how he did not thief from them, and how he was able to speak English because of his father. Father Victor started to question Kim’s name, and where did his last name, Rishti (//Eye-Rishti//, was the regiment of his father), had came from. Now, asking politely to Kim; with a cup of water. They start questioning him about his father, and also Umballa, that he should find a Red Bull on a green-field and that the Bull should help him. Bennet started thinking that Kim was mad. But he had explained them all the truth about himself, and Bennet started to think of sending him to the Masonic Orphanage. Then they started to use Kim as an interpreter; and asking him, if he was a son of Sahib. He was angry because they did not believe the chela was searching the River, and when Father Victor asked him where was it. The lama started telling him, but suddenly Kim tapped his foot, and probably the lama started to say lies. But Father Victor liked the ide of going to the River and wash all of Kim’s sins. Father Victor was treating him really nice. The holy started speaking about three incarnations. Which the first is about the Wonder House, the second was a Hindu and the third and last incarnation is a Red Bull. Kim understood that the sign of the Red Bull signified evil and Father Victor wanted to send Kim to school. So later on he could be a //Gorah-log// (white-folk). In the Military Orphanage, he would be paid for the classes. Bennett wasn’t agreeing with Kim’s not putting some effort to take the classes. Then Father Victor jumped and argued in favor of him, he even gave a place to stay. Later on he was handed to a sergeant to take him to Sanawar; they were preparing Kim for war.

Chapter 6 of Kim Kim is told that tomorrow they where going to enter to Umballa by the front doors. Kim wanted to leave, but everyone knew the stories of his appearance on camp. That is why he discover some things of his parentage, and his prophecy. That night the regiments came to visit the Mavericks. On the next day he waked up, realizing that the sick women introduced him to a German who painted scenery for the Parse traveling theatre. Then they made a deal, which relay on teaching the boy to write in return for food. When Kim went to the bazaar and was followed by a drummer-boy. If Kim wanted to escape, he would be easily spotted because of his special clothing, he was wearing. Later he was writing a story that began saying, “I have come down with the old man as far as Umballa in the train. At Umballa I carried the news of the bay mare’s pedigree.” (81). Kim was asked to tell everything, specially about England. Then he looks amazed on writing letters, therefore he explained in one of them, how he wanted to be “her puro- her clergyman- at Saharunpore.” (83). The lama was explaining Kim all of the options he had. After hand he will be able to decide where to go. If going to Lucknow or to the Military Orphanage. Father Victor explained all of the fashion and speaking forms there could be. He explained how the reputation of Mahbub Ali persue him. Kim explained, how he was a white Arab stallion and never forgotten any messages. Mahbub said, how Kim was orderly and how the messages where always delivered. For example, a message, that concerned the pedigree of a white stallion. Then they wanted someone who could make the boy of a soldier. That is why, the Coronel wanted Kim to join the regiment. While Father Victor was asking Kim some questions, the Colonel got to answer all of them. Kim never had the opportunity to speak and give his point of view. Then the boy (Kim) will probably got to be sent to St. Xavier’s. But the Coronel from The Verandah, said that in three days he will go to Lucknow.

Chapter 7 of Kim Kim was going to send a letter to the priest. A letter that explained Kim, where he will be going to school at Nuckalo called Xavier. When Kim said he did not knew where his school was located, the person who was writing for him interrupted Kim, saying he knew where the school was located. The Colonel Creighton arrived in a hurry, thinking Kim was running away from him. But Kim explained that he was not. The Colonel was wondering why Kim did not mention him in any of his letters. Kim said, it was rude and by naming of names many good plans are brought to confusion. Finally, finished the letter and sent it with a rose. The Colonel asked Kim to take his church-case to his house tat evening; Kim asked about what was his business and no one knew. Because he bought horses that he could not ride. Kim then said, he had a kismet (destiny) in his life, that he could not escape from. The Colonel told Kim, to always draw pictures about the roads and mountains. Therefore, when he got to see what lies behind it and later, describe that image with some knowledge. Creighton explained him that without knowledge he will be ignorant. There is no sin so great as ignorance. “Kim was in the road headlong, patting the dusty feet beneath the dirty yellow robe.” (96). Kim had now already forgotten the River. Then he described himself to the person who was driving him as, “I am all alone in this land; I know not where I go nor what shall befall me. My heart was in that letter I sent thee. Except for Mahbub Ali, and he is a Pathan, I have no friend save thee, Holy One. Do not altogether go away.” (97). Finally, Km was leaving to “The Gates of Learning” and while he was going up the stairs and the gates closing behind Kim’s. The lama just watched Kim leave. People “used to jogging off alone through a hundred miles of jungle, where there was always the delightful chance of being delayed by tigers.” (99). Then “when tales were told of hot nights, Kim did not sweep the board with his reminiscences; for St. Xavier’s looks down on boys who go native altogether.” (99). Kim “was informed that he would go north to some station in the hills behind Umballa, where Father Victor would arrange for him.” (100). “They would feed him raw beef on a platter at the barrack school, and he must smoke by stealth.” (100). Kim had felt in love, with a twelve year old girl, who worked busily.He explained everyone in the compartments, “that he was assistant to a juggler who had left him behind sick with fever, and that he would pick up his master at Umballa.” (101). Kim had left to the villages where the old soldiers lived. For this, “time Colonel Creighton at Simla was advised from Lucknow by wire that young O’Hara had disappeared.” (102). Kim had wisely left a well written letter to the Colonel. Mahbub had gone down to Umballa and after he had finded him, Kim explained all the things he had seen. He said, “I saw Rajahs, and elephants with gold and silver trappings; and they lit all the fireworks at once, whereby eleven men were killed, my firework-marker among them, and I was blown across a tent but took no harm. Then I came back to the rêl with a Sikh horseman, to whom I was groom for my bread; and so here.”(104). Finally Mahbub Ali asked Kim to go with him and mark with the horses.

Chapter 8 of Kim

Kim wanted to change his faith and his bidding. Then after the dealer laugh at him, the change was made and finally he was a Mahammedan. He, then started to narrate all of his adventures, of how he escape and let the Colonel chased him. Also, the started to talk about the night in which the lama and Kim, lied and remembered the pedigree of a white stallion. There, Kim asked what Mahbub business was, if to sell or to buy news? But he answered, that he needed to do both of them. Mahbub told Kim to use the news carefully and not to throw them away that easily. Therefore Kim had now understood that the Colonel was a servant of the Government and that he is sent “to hate and to give a word.” (108). Kim and Mahbub say goodbye to each other and had taken different paths. But then Kim headed away from the station, thinking on different stories he had been told. From the ones that Mahbub had told him. “Change of scene, service, and surroundings were the breath of his little nostrils, and thinking of the neat white cots of St. Xavier’s all arrow under the punkah gave him joy as keen as the repetition of the multiplication-table in English.” (110). Kim thought how much years he had given services and now how he just thought on being together with the lama. On a normal night, while Kim was sleeping. He had a nightmare, which felt like a peculiar malignant ghost. But he was much more scared, because he had hear. That people who slept near the horses got shoot and killed; he also, was told about it. After an hour had passed, Kim still stud up and later on. They went to the police station, looking for Lutuf Ulah. But they where not looking for him. They where looking for his horse-trucks. But later on, they got in a train. Someone on the train had been wounded with a gun shoot. So they took out their horses and headed to Simla. After getting of the there, they had meat a Colonel who was Governor of Fort Hoazil. Whom told Kim that his art was Little friend of all the World. Then he explained how his art paintings represented in his hearth, the Faiths that are like the horses. Each one has to be a part of its own country. Kim was now waiting to meet the lama at the Madrissah. While he was waiting, Mahbub Ali told Kim, not to tell anyone that he was selling horses or spoken to him, and that he also sells horses to Creighton Sahib.

Chapter 9 of Kim Kim was now becoming a Sahib. He was really nervous, because that was what he was expecting. Afterwards, he meets Lurgan Sahib. Who told Kim no to be afraid of him and that he will be spending some nights with him. But Kim was mocking him and later Lurgan showed where he will be spending the night. Which was in a really dark room. Kim thought Laurgan was trying to scare him. But that’s why he received his room with such amusement. So a Hindu boy took Kim. Whick was not aloud to speak to him; into his room. While we was sleeping, he was waked twice,. Once was because he was hearing someone calling his name and the second one he went to look where it was coming from, but founded nothing. All of the night he was thinking on how to beat the Hindu. So in the room he found a box, which held some bad choices. The box held thing from his Friends the Rajahs like, so as Lurgan liked. Having left, Kim was treated as an Equal on the Asiatic side. Then he was told how he was going to get killed by the boy. If it was with a knife or whether he was using some poison. The Lahore Museum was large, showing some turquoise and raw amber necklaces. Some materials which where shown, where from the Tibbet, Buddha, Russian and Chinese; and this was where Lauren Sahib used to worked. Then Lurgen invited Kim for a drink, which he refused. But at the next moment he was amazed of how the clay break into bits of pieces and how at the next moment he was fixing all those pieces. Kim thought it was magic. But Lurgan explained, how many pieces use to fly from their hands and break into many pieces. So he was thinking if he will try to be poisoned again or if he would be in his breakfast and make him cook again. He was impressed how Kim will never try to poison someone else. But instead he should beat him. Later the boy was explained how he was now at school and now was much more stronger. Kim had many colored socks where counting. But some of the other people, where showing, how something is done. But he could not understand and read. At the next morning, they started playing the Jewel Game. Which sometimes they play with stones and some other times with rocks. While they where playing, the shop was full filled with all polite manners. That made Lurgan really happy. Babu arrived and told how he could learn many things at Lucknow. Kim was asked to take five hundred to a thousand rupees. By now, he was thinking how great and desirable must be a business manager that brazens the heart of a Bengali. A few days later, Kim was sent to Lucknow. Where he will acquire wisdom from other places.

Chapter 10 of Kim Kim now got to travel by sea and realized how water was not his best. Because he got sea-sickness returning to Karachi. Now he had some work at Quetta in the house of a fat Commissariat sergant. Later on, they have been only eating fish, while they try seeking their way up from Quetta to the North. Through the trip, Jakko-road was full of snow and really deep. Now he had also been thought on where their were properties of native drugs. Then Colonel Creighton Sahib, sent Kim a written examination-paper that concerned itself solely with rods and chains and links and angles. He would be staying there until all of his horses have been sold out. So that later on could start talking about the revolvers that they could carry. They even considered the type of bullets they will be using. In this case some Government bullets. Kim then explained how in Sahib, if a man is killed; he will get hanged in jail. But if a man was beyond the border and his gun was unfolded, he could not get in trouble. They marched to Jodhpore, where Mahbub and his nephew Habib Ulah did much of their trading. Kim had now passed to second grade. But Lurgan Sahib operated as support in the reserve, while the Muslem Archbishop had been emphatic and over arrogant. Most of the Hurre Babu wanted to be made into a member of the Royal Society, by taking ethnological notes. Because Hurre Babu had been to old for the Road. That is why he decided to collect manners and custom information. Probably if there was no money and no preferment, Creighton would have drawn from his work on the Indian Survey. There was no trust with the young boy of Kim, but Colonel Creighton was and finally Kim felt of joy when St. Xavier’s Head called him aside, with a word that Colonel Creighton had sent for him. Kim was stressed for wearing a gun. He even got to be more responsible, by starting paying his commissions. Mahbub gave him an advice, almost as exact to point Huneeta and her likes, were destroyed by Kings and this time, they got to spend the night at a place called, The Bird-Cage. Which was filled of dirty, smoke hookahs and abdominals smells of tobacco. They covered up Hunnefa, with what Kim now use to call; magic. But then all of the jewelry lewd wickedness of wayside hatts had disappeared.The women wanted to see the Tarkean, which was cooked by a woman. Finally Kim got to wear his revolver under his robe and the amulet on his neck. But it was not time when Hurre Babu had disappeared into the crowd at the entrance of Lucknow.
