Sujet du devoir

je dois faire un commentaire pour demain en anglais
merci bcp :)

when he took up his claim of three hundred and sixty acres of land in the wilderness of northern Michigan, and sent my mother and five young children to live there alone until he could join us eighteen months later, he gave no thought to the manner in which we were to make the struggle and survive the hardships before us. He had furnished us with land and the four walls of a log cabin. Some day, he reasoned, the place would be a fine estate, which his sons would inherit and in the course of time pass on to their sons—always an Englishman's most iridescent dream. That for the present we were one hundred miles from a railroad, forty miles from the nearest post-office, and half a dozen miles from any neighbors save Indians, wolves, and wildcats; that we were wholly unlearned in the ways of the woods as well as in the most primitive methods of farming; that we lacked not only every comfort, but even the bare necessities of life; and that we must begin, single-handed and untaught, a struggle for existence in which some of the severest forces of nature would be arrayed against us—these facts had no weight in my father's mind. Even if he had witnessed my mother's despair on the night of our arrival in our new home, he would not have understood it. From his viewpoint, he was doing a man's duty. He was working steadily in Lawrence, and, incidentally, giving much time to the Abolition cause and to other big public movements of his day which had his interest and sympathy. He wrote to us regularly and sent us occasional remittances, as well as a generous supply of improving literature for our minds. It remained for us to strengthen our bodies, to meet the conditions in which he had placed us, and to survive if we could.

Voilà un résumé qui pourrait faciliter le commentaire:
Le père envoie sa famille ( femme et cinq jeunes enfants) prendre possession d'une terre isolée dans le Michigan. Il doit les rejoindre dans 18 mois mais, de manière tout à fait inconsciente, les laisse se débrouiller tout seuls pour survivre dans cet univers hostile. Il envoie de ses nouvelles mais ne se préoccupe guère du sort désespéré de sa famille. La narratrice déplore l'attitude négligente de son père.
