1. I understand. you found paradise in America, you have a good trade, you made a good living the police protected you and there were courts of law. ***** in this sentences what's there were courts of law meaning????? "there were courts" = courts existed. ==> justice was supported and organised. ______________________________________________________________________ 2. and "America has made my fortune". means america make him rich? Yes, "fortune" sometimes means circumstance, without implying wealth. ________________________________________________________________________ 3. and you made a good living is means his have good life or make of money? . Unstated. His life was by some criteria "good". Depends on the speaker's perspective. It could mean "not evil". It could mean "not impoverished". It could mean "comfortable" or "well off".
