personality of Zeitoun and Kathy

  Hi, I am jielei mei in ENG101. In this blog, I want to show what I have learned from Zeitoun and Kathy and  how their personality affect their decision as the storm approached.

      When Kathy knew the storm would come to their city, she told Zeitoun that they should leave but Zeitoun decided to stay and watch their house and let Kathy leave with their children (Zeitoun, p50-54). At first, Kathy didn't leave because she thought they couldn't leave their properties. But she decided to go after she heard the contraflow would affect the city. Rather, Zeitoun was busy in securing all his job sites.

      From the above, we know that Zeitoun and Kathy are hardworking, responsible and considerate. Firstly, their properities were the result of their effort. They worked hard every day. It was not easy to own these propotities.They respected and cared more about their properties. Therefore, though they knew the storm would come to their city, they considered the security of their properity at first. Secondly, their responsibility affected their decision as the storm approached. They are responsible for their clients. They though their equipments would do harm to clients' property if they didn't secure their job sites (Zeitoun, p50). Also, they are responsible for their family and their properity. Thirdly, their consideration has a great influence on their decision. On one hand, they considered the security of their clients property. On the other hand, they consider the security of their own properity and their children. As a result, Zeitoun went to secure all their job sites and let Kathy leave the city with their children as the storm approached.
