1. Why did Parvana's family embrace Shauzia as if she was an old friend, even though they had not met her before?

Parvana's family embraced Shauzia as if she was an old friend because they don't have a lot of people coming over to their house so as soon as Shauzia came over they were really happy. They also embraced her because they want to have an old friend come ever and since they saw Shauzia come over they were happy to have Parvana bring someone over and thuoght that she was Parvana's old friend so they embraced her as an old friend

2. How do you think Parvana felt about running into Shauzia. How would you feel in Parvana's situation? Make a connection to an experience you've had, or another text.

I think Parvana felt happy because she is dressed as a boy and seeing her old classmate that is a girl being dressed and a boy as will made her feel really happy that Shauzia is in the same situation as Parvana. I would feel shocked because seeing my friend in the same situation as I am will make me feel really happy.Also because if people find out that I am a girl dressed like a boy, I won't feel embarrassed because she is also a girl dressed as a boy too.Once I had a problem,I forgot what it was but I was so worried that I might get in trouble,but I thought for a minute that my friend will also suffer the same consequences as me. Also when I watched the 2012 movie,I was so scared that it will be true,but I thought again"if it is true and I die also will most people around the world so I stopped worrying

3. Why might Parvana feel uncomfortable about digging up bones for money? Would you dig up the bones? Explain your thinking.

She might feel uncomfortable because it doesn't feel right. She might think that the person doesn't want people to dig up her or his body. I wouldn't also want to dig up bones because what if that person comes to haunt you. Or does bad things to you because you dug up his or her's body. She wouldn't do it for money also because she's hiding something from her mother. Her mother doesn't know that she is digging up bones. She thinks that Parvana is selling her father's stuff to make money. I would and wouldn't do it. Would is because my family needs it and I can't leave them,I would have to do it if it was for my family. But i wouldn't do it because its dangerous and I wouldn't want to lie to my family. They think I am selling stuff but I am really digging bones. Not a good lie. They would find out.

4. Why did Parvana keep her work digging up bones a secret from her family. Try and come up with a least two reasons.

1. She keep working because she knew that her family needs the money and they are counting on her to make money for them. 2. Since they don't have dad anymore,e have to count on Parvana to make money for them.
