DragonWings and Excerpt from “ Comprehending the Calamity,” by Emma M. Burk’s hurricane passages are very similar and very different.
One thing that is extremely similar between the two passages is both texts are about the 1906 earthquake. In Dragonwings the talk about the homes collapsing on people and how dangerous it is. In “Comprehending the Calamity,” they talk about the street breaking apart and the pipes being revealed.
One thing that they have diffrent is in Dragonwings is people wore things that were valuable. In “Comprehending the Calamity” Emma Burke talked about how she dressed in wool to stay warm, in the text it says “I was merely considering what was the warmest and most substantial.”
