Lakshmis fantasy differs because when she gets to the city she sees that is no different than where she lived. On page 87, she says, "And roofs made of sheets tied in place with plastic vines. But no roof of gold. No date of mango or orange trees." This shows that not everything that is told to us is going to be true. There will be surprises along the way. There will also be disappointments knowing that what you thought was not correct.
Lakshmis fantasy differ because when she saw the city it looked poor as where she had lived before.On page 87, she says "Side by side by side are men,women, and children in rags,asleep on the ground."This shows that what Lakshmi was thinking that the city will be a wealthy place was not true,because they where on the ground sleeping like if they didn't had no beds to sleep in because they don't have no money to afford them.On the village of Lakshmi they where poor because there they didn't had roofs.So Lakshmi sees everything the same as her village.There's poorness as her village.
Lakshmi arrives to the city and realizes that it is nothing like what she imagned!To be honest it's just like her hometown in Nepal, except it is in India, with more arregent poeple and futuristic toys. I know this because on pages 87-88 lakshmi is discribing what she sees. It is like everything she has fanatsized about the city has gotten a reality check! There are no gold roofs even near her, and no rich movie stars living under those roofs. The only thing in existance in miles from where she is are huts next to more huts next to even more huts! The only thing futeristic about India is the toys that they drive wrecklsly on, and the poeple talking on them. This proves that not only does the city differ from her fantasys, but the city is like a home away from home with no family!
Lakshmi’s fantasy differs because she imagined the city having houses with gold roofs and movie stars. When she gets there she sees that it’s not really different than where she lives now. I know this because on page 87 Lackshmi says there are roofs of metal scraps but no roofs of gold and no movie stars. This shows Lackshmi was really disappointed of what she saw.
Lakshmi's fantasy of the city differs from the reality because her perception of the city was rich women in flowing dresses and fruit trees and golden roofs, when in reality, the city people were as poor, sometimes poorer than she was. The roofs were made of cheap materials that wouldn't last a simple drizzle, let alone a monsoon. The people were living in the streets, some were probably dead from diseases. Many children were naked, and beggars were common on every street. Lakshmi always knew what poverty was, but she never experienced it like this.
Lakshmis fantasy of what the city would look like differs from the reality because Lakshmi thought that the place was gonna be way more rich than like what it seemed. For example like on page 87 Lakshmi says " Noo Roofs Of Gold ; No date or Mango or orange trees ; And no movie stars. Only rows of sleeping bodies. Side by side by side are men, women , children in rags asleep on the ground." Which is saying nothing turned turned out the way that she dreamed of and wanted.Everything was like the total opposite. Which actually I feel really bad for her. Anyways Therefore, that proves that nothing went the way that she wanted it all became the total opposite.
Lakshmi's fantasy differs from reality because when she arrives she noticed that is the same as being in Nepal. On pages 87-88 she described how the city looked. She though that the people in the city were rich with big house, but in real life they were poor. People laying down on the streets because they didn't have money for a place to live in. This proves that Lakshmi was surprised of what the reality is about the city.
Lakshmi's fantasy of what the city looks like differs from the reality because she imagined roofs made out of gold, mango/orange trees and movies stars. Instead on pg 87 she sees huts after huts after huts and instead of the gold roof that she wanted to see so much she sees roofs made out of metal scraps. Roofs with all kinds of things on them, roofs made out of heavy paper with bricks,boots, pots and pans piled on it. Roofs made out of sheets tied in place with plastic vines, but no no gold roofs. She doesnt see date,mango or orange trees and no movie stars. Instead she sees rows of sleeping bodies, side by side are men, women and children in rags asleep on the floor. She trys to count them but there are too many for her too count. This shows that instead of it being all pretty with nice roofs and nice people, she sees huts after huts after huts with people(men, children and women) sleeping on the ground as if they have no where to go. This also shows that it is not better than Nepal it is worse, with all those people on the ground having no choice but to stay there. At least in Nepal you dont see hundreds and hundreds of people lying on the ground.
when lakshmi gets to the city she realizes that it differs from the fantasy she had in mind. lakshmi always pictured the roofs of the city were made of gold and their where movie stars. on page 87 she sees that what she had in mind is completly diffrent than the truth. she says "men,women, and children in rags asleep on the ground." this shows that lakshmi got a wake up call and realized what she had imagined was a complete lie.
when lakshmi goes to the city she realizes that it differs from what she thought because the city was kind of like her home. she thought that the city would be full of houses that had gold roofs and there would be trees with oranges dates and mangos. she saw that what she had dreamed of was a complete lie. she sees people laying on the ground and she cant tell if they are dead or alive. she trys to count them. and when she gets to two hundred she stops and realizes that there are about two hundred more in sight. she says that she is afraid of the city because the lying down people look like the dead and the standing up people look like the living dead. now lakshmi sees that her life at home is better than life in the city. lakshmi shoul want to go home now because this isnt the life that i think she wants.
When Lakshmi Gets to The city Her Whole Vision of it Was the totally Opposite. The wasnt No Roof Made Out of Gold No Mangos,Oranges, Or Date trees, And Movie stars. It actually seems Like India Is Kind Of poor , People Are Dressed in rags Huts With Roof Made of Metal scraps . People Are sleeping Side by side On The ground . Its Like Lakshmi was Dreaming a fairytale Because India wasnt Much Different from Nepal Except Its More Urban And Nepal was more rural And wasnt that Bad.
Laksmi's idea of the city differs from reality because her idea of the city are gold roofs, movie stars and date, mango or orange trees. on page 87 the city really was different from what she had in mind because she describes the city with no gold roofs, and huts like in her own village. she says there are no movies stars and no date, mango or orange trees only rows of sleeping bodies. This shows that the city is not what laksmi had in mind and what she thought about the city was way off.
Lakshmi's fantasy city & reality city differ in many ways. Lakshmi thinks that the city will be filled with movie stars, mango trees, and all the roofs will be covered in gold. On page 61 Lakshmi asks auntie if the roofs in the city are covered in gold. But, on page 87 she sees that there's nothing like that the roofs are made of metal scrap, heavy paper, and sheets. There weren't any movie stars or mango trees. But, there were people sleeping on the street. Then it hit her, this wasn't anything like her fantasy city.
When Lakshmi gets to the city she finds out that what she thought would be like heaven turned out to be just like her hometown Calcutta. On page 61 Lakshmi is on the bus with Auntie on her way to be sold again. Lakshmi asks Auntie a lot of questions of what the city would be like one question she asked was if in the city the roofs were made of gold. On page 87, OPEN QUOTE, "There are roofs made of metal scraps, held down with the soft black wheels from cars. There are roofs of heavy paper, piled with bricks and boots and pots and pans. And roofs made of sheets tied in place with the plastic vines. But no roofs of gold. No date or mango or orange trees. And no movie stars.” When Lakshmi arrives in the city she finds out the city was just like home. People in the city do certain things to survive like using the tires from cars to hold up a roof and people in Calcutta like Gita and Lakshmi's families send their children to work.
Laksmi ecxpect the city to have lots of movie stars beautiful people , and everyone with roofs of gold. I know this because on page 61 she asked auntie "Are the roofs made of gold? ". Just to find out its poverty there just like where she lives its just more people. Because on page 87 she describes there roofs as " made of sheets tied in place with the plastic vine,but no roofs of gold". Also because she mentions a boy with a limp begging for food.
Lakshmi's fantasy differs because she thought everything was going to be different from the house her mom and brother are in. She thought she would see gold roofs and mangos and tree orange but nothing was different.
Lakshmi's fantasy differs from the reality in a lot of ways.In her fantasy she probably imagined roofs made of gold because she questions Auntie about it.Also on page 41 Auntie tells her that where she comes from(the city) girls eat sweet cakes and have pretty dresses.Lakshmi infers Auntie is a maid which proves that she thinks the city is really fancy.Once she arrives to the city it was like someone bursted her bubble.She saw huts and women,men and children lying on the floor.There was no gold roofs or anything.It probably looked worse than where she came from because everywhere there was poor people in the streets.
Lakshmi's fantasy is different from reality because she thought that the city would be more detailed and it will look like they have money to fix their homes. In reality it looked just like the village where she came from. on page 87, "There roofs of heavy paper, piledwith bricks and boots and potsand pans. And roofs made of sheets tied in place with plastic vines. But no roof of gold. No dates or mango or orange trees. And on movie stars. This shows that when she got there she was wrong and it wasn't as she expected. Also because she thought since there were supposely jobs that they were supposed to have money.
Lakshmi's hits reality and her fantasy is all in her head. In her fantasy p.87, the roofs are made of gold. There are dates, mangos, and orange trees. There are also movie stars. The reality is there is none of that. There are sleeping bodies all over the ground. On p.88 it says there are 200 and more bodies on the ground when Lakshmi counted. This proves that Lakshmi fantasy is just a fantasy. It turns out that none of the things she has heard about the city is true. Lakshmi and her fantasy just hit reality and they aren't the same.
Lakshmi's fantasy differs from what the city is like by a milestone. On page 87, she is waiting to see those golden roofs that everyone talks about. Instead on pages 87-88 she is to find roofs made of metal scraps, roofs made of heavy paper, rows of sleeping bodies, people that look like walking dead, and of course no movie stars. This proves that whatever fantasy Lakshmi had in her head about what the city would be like was way off by a milestone. So off that it made Lakshmi now scared about being in the city she has always dreamed of.
