The Chocolate War ( until chapter 15)

Leon and Archie finally told to all the students about selling the chocolates. According to the Leon, He does not force students to sell the chocolates, however, his attitude shows that everyone must sell the chocolates. He called all of the students’ name one by one. When Jerry’s name was called, Jerry said that he does not want to sell the chocolates. Even the week past, he continued refusing.

Before chapter 10, there were two part of the story. One was about Jerry, and the another one was about Archie and Leon. However, from chapter 10, these two stories are connected each other.

This story reminds me of some of my friends. They also refuse everything that teacher said. Therefore they got trouble. Then I have a question!! Why do you think that Jerry refused to sell the chocolates. I think it is because that Jerry’s life was boring so that he wants to do something interesting. Refusing selling the chocolates would be very interesting because in the past, there was no one who refused to sell the chocolates. Thus by doing unusual thing, he may be satisfied.

I agree with you that sometimes when people are selling something all the time, it is boring. If it's me, i can't do it too because i'm a person who can't stay for something in long period.
