Connecter(chapter 4)

They are so close and they fight as a village and they did not give up even when their tribe was getting leser and lesser .They are so united.Its so hard to see this kind of attitude among us this days.We don't even help our friends when help are needed.Some of us gave up easily when work are given and we don't know what to do with it.This kind of people does not have the initiative to find a way to solve a problem .They would run away from them or leave it for others to solve it for them.This kind of attitude is very different from the kind of attitude the villagers have .I think that we this days must follow the good attitude that the villagers have in the story.
