The questions

• How did it feel to have more or less money than other people in the class?
What other people talking about…… like talking about the new Famous Brand…… Expensive stuff, if their talk about any we can’t buy it stuff all will that other people feel “I’m so destitute”. If you saying about something other people they can’t even touch, you will feel you money are so many!

How did it feel to see what you could and could not afford at the Global Mall?
If I see any I could not buy afford thing, I will feel not very will, that feel like…… sad? No, not that exaggerate, maybe is ……lost? Yea, I think so.

• How many of you could not afford education? What would your lives be like if you could not go to school?
Not very much I could not afford education, I almost try every thing, piano, Classical Chinese Music- 二胡(erhu fiddle), I'm almost forget how to play, the 洋琴(Yang- chin), and stop at half way's harmonica…… I all try it. If could not afford the education, I think I will very want to go to the school, and I will try to go to the school by "stow away".

• How would it feel to have to choose between food and health care?
I think food was most important, you know, at before there was no health care, they still can alive very will.
• How many of you have ever been very sick or gone to a hospital or had friends and family who have? What would your life be like now if you had been unable to get medical care?
Yea, my father, he was because the Lithiasis, so he have to go to the 804 hospital. I don't know how if could have the medical care. But it mas very bad.
• What were the impacts caused by people with fewer Global Mall Dollars, and what were the impacts caused by people with more Global Mall Dollars?
People with less money would have less chance to get sick because they're food will have less chance of getting pesticides, and people with more money will have more chance of eating pesticides because the farmer will be able to afford it.

• Discuss the fact that roughly one-fifth of all people worldwide survive on less than $1 (U.S.) a day – how does this limit their choices, and what are the environmental, social, and global security implications of this?
They don't have enough of money to buy their need thing.

• When you were choosing what to buy, did you think about the environmental impact? For those of you in the lowest income range, did you have a choice about the environmental impact you produced? If not, how did it feel to not have a choice?
Yes, our home all will choose more environmental thing to use.
