Where was my strong human spirit after the exam?
You must jump off the harbour bridge tonight and kill yourself. Do you agree?Olympus15 said:Disagreeing's fine but to me its almost always logical to agree. If you disagree you can significantly fall down an abyss in your writing from which there is no end. Play it safe, agree.
Yeah although in P.S case you do need a strong human spirit for they are embarking on apprenhesive journey and this theme apprehension is sustained throughout the poems and obv P.S family made it through the harsh times thus showing that no matter the journey you have to be strong to make it.. oh and in 'Immigrants at central station the line "time ran along on glistening tracks of steel" or something has connotations of hope.sdx91 said:I said that in P.S case, the immigrants do not need a strong human spirit when they are undertaking their journey but in my related text Castaway, Chuck needs a strong human spirit to survive.. etc.. don't know if its right lol.
So I said it some cases it is and some it isn't.. but oh well..
The HSC advice line said that because their is more to discuss if you agree with it. If you disagree, do not go in depth about reasons for why it is not true.berger69 said:okay i just called hsc advice line
they said it was almost critical to AGREE with the quote
im screwed now...i disagreed!!!
How come if she done extension English that she done physical journeys, part of the English standard course?nublet554 said:My sister who got like 100 in extension 1 a few years ago helped me do all my texts and shit over the year, and she also did the paper for me when i got home to help me out (yer shes awesome).
She said it was discuss the statement so u have to agree and disagree. She agreed stong spirit can lead to meaningful journeys and allow the traveller to overcome harder obstacles, and also lead to a more meaningful outcome with growth such as rabbit proof fence.
She then disagreed and said it isnt always vital for journeys though, as even no spirit can lead to a journey. She gave an example from Kite Runner book how a friend sees his friend being ra ped and doesnt help, so he goes on a journey that separates him from his friend and down a path in life he isnt proud of.
She also talked about the catalyst of journeys, and if they involve spirit the journey is more meaningful, represented by the spirit bird at beginning and seeing it when she is in moore river settlement and in the desert. Something like that
i think thats how they wanted u to do it for physical journeys. hope it helps.
