The Lemon Orchard

We are going to describe a character of “The Lemon Orchard”.
He is a dark skinned man and he is a teacher. “Yes baas’, the bound man said speaking with a mixture of dignity and contempt which was missed by those who surround him”. We think this is the best quote to describe the character, or the best quote to represent him. It shows that he didn’t talk very much and that he’s afraid, but he still respecting them.
This man went to talk with the principal of the school he worked to complain about his salary, and after that, he was kidnapped and taken into a Lemon Orchard. He was quiet and afraid, he didn’t do anything, only what the other men told him to do. This man didn’t talk too much because he was intimidated by others. When he was taken from his house he had his pyjamas on and he was allowed to put over a jacket and a pair of trousers. The only thing we know from him is that he was a teacher and now is a prisoner of this men because he complained because# he wanted to have the same salary as the rest of the teachers.
His attitude towards other people is one of respect. The other people treat him very bad, they discriminated him, they said him things like “He’s a slim hotnot”, “Do you hear, jong?”
If he was an animal, we think that he would be a zebra because it is intimidated and afraid of other animals, like lions, foxes, etc, they are helpless, this animal shows an attitude of respecet too, like this character.

An Astrologer's day

Based on the story, write a guide on "How to be an astrologer". Add some ideas of your own and upload it before April 4th.

1) Appearence: If you want to be a real astrologer, or at least to look like one, your appearence is fundamental to gain this. Put on your head a kind of turban and maybee paint a part of your face.

2) Decorate your place: Decorate your desk/tamble whith strange and catching stuff. Try to be on a semi-dark place and to have peaces of cloth faling from the roof. Red. blue, brown and color of that kind will help you to create an interesting atmosphere

3) Vocabulary and Convincement: You must speak in a strange way, like if you are pacific, calm, and 'Receiving information'. You have to convince your client of what you are saying to them and make kim/her think you are an expert on this subject

If you cover all these requirements, surely you'll make a fortune.
Good luck!
