Week 8.

Wednesday:Mr Chua let us do a worksheet of Romeo and Juliet ,title ''IMAGERY (R&J)".

'Oh,she doth teach the torches to burn bright!'

Torches are used to bring bright to dark places.When Romeo says that Juliet 'teaches the torches to bun bright'.he is saying that she is more than any torch.Light is a symbol of beauty.


'It seems she hangs upon the cheek of night
Like a rich jewel in an Ethiope's ear.'

The literary device used here is personification.Night is imagined by Romeo to have a life.This means that night is given human characteristics.
Diamonds reflect light cast on them and they sparkle Ethiopia is a country in Africa.Peaple in this country have dark skin.Objects that shine like diamons in the night sky are the stars,and the moon.

'So shows a snowy dove trooping amongst crows,
As yonder lady over her fellows show'

The literary device used here is metaphor,since Juliet is directly compared to a dove.These birds are beautiful.The rest of the ladies in the Ball are compared to crows.These birds are urgly.

Mr Chua asked us to do a similar thing to our love one on the other side of the paper but cannot copy the same thing infront.
I learnt to describe my love one in a form of poetry way.

Friday:Mr chua asked us to do a worksheet called ''Sonnets''.

Make up lesson:Mr Chua bought us down to Movers and Shackers Gallary to do a worksheet about our founding father and Singapore history.

Week 6

Wednesday:The class had been told to do a comprehension worksheet base on the title called''Merchant of Venice".We only had 10 minutes to complete it.The story is about Shylock insist on taking the pound of flesh from Antonio and not taking the 3 times the money.This tells me that Shylock must be hated Antonio for a very long time because Shylock does not care about the 3times of money and insist on wanting the pound of flesh.This also tell me that Shylock does not want to be meriful toward Antonio.On other worksheet,Mr Chua let us know that Shylock hate Antonio for a very long time because Antonio insulted the Shylock by calling him a cut-throat dog and misbeliever and even spit upon Shylock Jewish clothes.

This lesson taught me that we must be merciful and not to insult peoples that are different religion of us or else others will treat us back badly or the way we treated them earlier.

Friday:No lesson for me because of CHY performens.
