1: I think that Yoko's character of kind of scared little girl, I would definatly be scared if I was a young girl going all over the place during a war. Such as the part when they were in the train and they had to look really sick in front of the guys. It said "I did not move a flinch" or something like that, if that were me I would be so scared but from what it sounded like it did not seem that she was scared. Even though that I think she might be a scared little girl I think that she is also brave for doing all the different things, such as shaving her head and not eating for like 2 days. I dont think that I myself could ever realate to her because she is very brave to me and im not as brave as her.
2: Well I think that they dont seem like everyday sisters because Yoko calls her honorable sister and usually sisters DO NOT call themselves that. Although I am not sure about that because maybe in a different country they do that. In the beggining thay seemed very nice to eachother but right now in the book it seems that she is kind of mean and bossy. But I thought that when Ko carried Yoko on her back that, that was pretty nice of her because she probably new she was tired. Over all of there performance of sisters I think that they are just regular sisters being mean to eachother and also being nice to eachother.
3: I think that they reacted pretty calm, because what it seems like in the book they dont react really that dramatic to all that is going on. What Ko was doing was talking to the patients and making them feel comfortable instead of freaking out and drinking pee or jumping out of a train. What Yok0 did was shared a little food with all of the people around her and share her blankets since many of the people did not have that on hand. The mother was helping some woman with there baby's, such as when that one baby died she was supporting the mother even though she jumped out ofthe train. I thought that many of them did a little bit for others on the train and I thought that it was pretty nice for them to do that.

I agree with you that Yoko and Ko seem like regular sisters because even normal sisters fight, it's just the natural order of things. On the train, the Kawashimas did act pretty calm, but sometimes it felt like Yoko was freaking out.
i also think that they and calm do to the fact that they are in a train with a lot of hurt or dead soldiers
I agree with you on #1. Yoko has been through so much on her way to Seoul. Shes very brave to do all the things she did that an adult probably couldn't do.
