My Scene in Dragonwings

page 95-97, Chapter four

Characters: Windrider, Moon Shadow, Black Dog, Lead Head, Lead Head's subordinates
Setting: In Lead Head's house, in the night
How the scene begins: windrider and Moon Shadow go to find Black Dog
How the scene ends: Windrider and Moon Shadow save Black Dog
The Problem: Black Dog may hurt Moon Shadow in the future

Substitute:
What do you think would have happened if Tiger is the person who catch Black Dog instead of Lead Head?

I think Tiger would beat Black Dog more hardly. Black Dog may hurt more seriously.

Modify:
What would have happened if Black Dog had been timid?

I think Black Dog would beg to Windrider and ask windrider to save him

Rearrange:

What would have happened if Black Dog died before Windrider and Moon Shadow went to save him?

I think Windrider would thought that Black Dog ere still safe. They would stopped finding Black Dog.

Rewritten Scene


I saw Black Dog who looked up, confused, studying the three men for a moment until he recognized them. He looked so afraid. "Tiger," Black Dog said to the men in the middle, "Please let me go. Don't hurt me!" He looked at us, and said, "Windrider, Moon Shadow. Please help me!" Tiger beat him unconscious, "Shut up. You cheap dog." Tiger said, "Ha Ha, I am going to kill him now!"

Suddenly I heard a shrill piercing whistle from above me. I looked up to see Father with two fingers in his mouth. It was a decidedly demonic talent.

I don't think the gunmen would have mistaken Father's whistle for the sound of the police if they had been calm, but of course they were nervous and excited about the killing. The man on Tiger's left turned to run, but Tiger grabbed his arm. "The gun, you fool, the gun."

Dumbly, the young man let Tiger give him the gun. Then the three of them ran like mad for the alleyway.

"Where did you learn to whistle like that?" I asked Father where he leart to whistle.

"Something I picked up," Father said.

"Think you could teach me?"

"Yes, it might just come in handy for you."

Unfortunately, one of them noticed that the alarm sound was produced by Father. He told other two to stop running. Then they ran towards us. A gun sound spread in the night. And there was a real police alarm went off in the night. Tiger shouted at us, "I'll be back!" Then they ran away.

The man took a shot at Black Dog's chest. He was hurt. "Oh!" Black Dog shouted out.

Father crouched and got Black Dog over his shoulders and walked slowly up the steps. I was waiting for him at the top. "Get his hat and things," Father said.

But I was staring up at Black Dog. I was so afraid.

"Listen," Father said, "We must send him to his father!"

I got Black Dog's hat and shirt and joined Father, who had already started to walk toward the alley mouth.

Small Class in Hong Kong

I think small class cannot be worked in Hong Kong successfully, because the main reason that we need to have small class in Hong Kong, cannot really help Hong Kong students.

Outwardly, there are plenty of advantages about small class. For example, Secretary for Education, Michael Suen said that we can improve the quality in learning things. And students will have more opportunities for trips outside; fewer kids to watch and teachers would teacher better.

Towards the parents that their children have great school result, they are very appreciate that having small class in Hong Kong, because they do not want some students who get bad result to make the rate of learning be slower. So they want to have small class in Hong Kong.

Contrariously, parents that their children have bad result do not want to have small class in Hong Kong. Why? They disagree because they want to save their children!

The most important reason that Michael Suen wants to have small class in Hong Kong is more classes can keep schools open! That's the most important reason. But parents think in this way, Michael Suen thinks in the opposite way. So I think small class can not be worked in Hong Kong.

History Assignment

These qualities are to be imaginative, determine what society needs, breaks from the old ways and creative . I think we can learn to determine what society needs in our L.S. lesson and History lesson..We learned the mistakes from the past and we know how to avoid to do those wrong things.

We also learned to be imaginative and creative in our Art lesson. We finished our art work by ourselves. There are no helpers to help us finish our work, but other lesson's work, may have.

And I also learned that quality, full of imagination while I was recite something by heart. Those Chinese poem are so difficult to remember. So I use that method to help me to remember things. I think it is very useful.

Computer Lesson

I learned Touch Typing correctly with my hands. In the past, I couldn't type the words without looking at the keyboard. But I think I will do it later. And the website that Mr. Woo gave provides some exercise for us to practice. I think it is useful. And I learned how to place my fingers. And I learned 'A, S, D, F, G, H, J, K, L and ;'.

History Homwork

The five basic qualities that a good inventor might have are creative, hardworking, talent, fervor and willpower.

I think hardworking is the most important thing of those five basic qualities, because if you work hard, you have 50 percent to pass to be a good inventor. But if you don't work hard, you have no way to be a good inventor.

The second most important thing of those five basic qualities is fervor. People who have fervor always reach their dreams. They can make their dreams to be come true because they are interested on it. It is an important factor.

Willpower is also very important. For example, if you want to finish your homework, you may need to concentrate yourself. If not, you will be attracted by other things!

History Homework

I think Hong Kong doesn't need revolution, because although there are a few Hong Kong people are discontent with China Government, but most of us do not oppose or we can say that, they aren't bold enough to oppose China Government. So I think Hong Kong doesn’t need revolution, because a few people can't control 700 millions Hong Kong people! It won't work! I don't think China Government will let Hong Kong to have a revolution, because China needs Hong Kong to help them in every item. They need Hong Kong's technology to develop their huge country!

Although Hong Kong people lose their freedom, but China really make Hong Kong's economy well. I believe without China to helping Hong Kong, Hong Kong can't develop very well in this recent years. Hong Kong is a part of China throughout. If Hong Kong has problems, China will help us, because both have benefit.
