Choose two stories that reveal the thinking of an older generation of Singaporeans . What new insights have you gained from such an revealation .

Dream of China.
The author's father had a stubborn way of thinking as he continously insist that he has no right o go back to china for even a visit. while his children kept on insisting that there is nothing wrong in visiting his home country. From this we can say that the older generations are usually more stubborn than the younger generation. It is because they usually do not heed the advice of the younger ones since they think that they are older and thus they know more. but what they do not see is that times change as they grow older and do not realize the change in many things around them.

Mak thought that the younger generation was ignorant regarding customs and how they do things . She thought that if they left her alone , she would feel better as they kept pestering her to go out , to go for a holiday , as long as it takes to make her leave the house . She thought that they were clueless when they go about doing things realating to following customs & traditions .

    Genevieve! Not bad. You got the facts right and it is surprising to see you write this long. Haha! For the Dream of China, you got typing error. Your punctuation also all wrong. Where's your capital letter? The facts all i agree with. So, overall, Good Job! =D

  2. Points are elaborated very well , after reading her points , i understand what she is saying . She is precise when it comes to elaborating on the important points of each story . Stories are well elaborated and is very detailed when it comes to summarizing the key points of each story . Paragraphs are of appropriate length , not too short or too long . Either way will be boring for the reader .
