Correction Written Part "The Kite Runner"
Winter, 1975
Dear Father,
I'm writing to you because I want you to know the reason of my behaviour these days, the reason why I arrived at home the day of the kite tournament bleeding.
As you know, Amir and I took part of the tournament, and we won, it was great! But it lastedd only the ame afternoon. When the tournament finished, I told Amir I would fly the blue kite for him, the precious kite he had won, but then I was so distracted that I ended running the kite near the bazaar. I was so distracted that I didn't realize it was getting late, that I needed to come back with Amir, but the worst, I didn't realize that Assef, Wali and Kamal were following me all the time.
In the end, when I started running, they stalked me in one of the alleys, the alley that changed my life from now on.
Assef forced me to give him the blue kite, but I knew that a servant must be loyalto his owner, so I denied. So he got angry and charged me, hold me and with Wali's and Kamal's help, he raped me.
That's the reason why I arrived bleeding all the way back. But when Assef was doing such horrible thing, I barely saw someone's foot on the back of the alley, I know it was Amir, no doubt about it. Now, I will never smile again.
I'm sure it is all Amir's fault, because I had never failed to him, and in the worst situation of my entire life, he betrayed me and dind't do anything.
I'm sure you will do something about it, because someone who will never betray is you, father.
Best Wishes,
Hassan.

New Zealand Task B
Some of the cultural elements of New Zealand is they're multi-cultural, and they can easily include everybody who come either on holidays or exchange. Also the Maori culture influence in New Zealand was really interesting. They are so many places that are related to Maori, for example in Te Papa museum their is a section of lots of Maori buildings, houses, etc.
Some of the things that are different from Chile is the huge amounts of green zones, the New Zealanders takes serious care about the grass and the tress, making it look good. Another difference is the car wheel is on the right side of the car, just like England. This is added when we cross the road, because they have told us that when we want to cross, we must look to the right side, and it is and important detail if we don't want to get hit by a car.
But their was a huge difference of Chile that surprised me, and it is that New Zealanders can start driving at the age of 16, because they consider that they old enough to learn one of the most important things in your life, which is your transport.

New Zealand Task A
What it is to be a New Zealander? A question I had made myself many times in my stay here in New Zealand, and I had noticed it is a very different life and routine.
I realized that New Zealanders are so kind , and you don't have to worry about taking so much care of your things, because if for some reason they find someone's stuff, they will know that they have to bring it back.
Also, I had seen that my family have a strict daily routine, that starts at the morning ( 6:30 am ) on school and work days, and it ends at 9 pm for the boys and later for the parents. The students here in Scots start school at 8:45 and it ends at 3:30, and depending of the individual activities of each one after school, they either stay at school or go home.
The New Zealanders knows that at 5:30 pm is already dark, and most of the people go home before it's totally dark for security and also because it gets cold. And because of it, their day is much shorter than our days in Chile.
And, in my opinion, the most important thing of New Zealanders is they're multi-cultural. Here in Scots College, Wellington, I could appreciate color people, Asians, and people from different religions and different parts of the world. It's maybe because Scots accepts lots of exchanges, like us, and they include them in their society really fast and kindly, as one of them.
